so I've been getting into some fitness. Anyways i've been squating for a while. Recently I managed to do 3 sets of 10 with 135 pounds. Before I did like 115. Anyways, my knees have fucking been hurting like fuck the past 2 days, when the squats were on friday. Should I be worried or is this shit normal? I have a popping right knee when I squat, not a audible pop or anythign but I can feel it.
>3 sets of 135
You know, there's a point where you can't even say "everyone starts somewhere".
Your knees should not themselves be hurting from squats, should only be the large muscle groups in your legs.

If your knee joint hurts, something's wrong with either your knee or your technique. Can't say more without a vid of you squatting from side and back angle. Alternatively, find a reliable resource (experienced weightlifter or powerlifter/their coach depending on whether you squat high or low bar) and critically analyze your own form.

are you judging me because of the amount of weight I do?
either way, idk shits weird

you need to have your form checked. it's possible that you are putting too much strain on your knees, for example your knees might be too far forward when you go down

You have to be 18+ to post here

Consider going to /fit they can tell you how you need to do less reps 5x5 is the only way to workout.
Maybe consider using a stairmaster if you can only squat 135.
