I found the solution I wanted to share with you guys that allows me to continue to do what I love to do. So I'm pushing past my mid thirties now and started feeling horrible knee pains when doing the squats. It really made me feel like a fool that I could barely squat more than my benchpress because of threatening knee pains at the bottom squat position. So I decided, instead of masking it with deca or anadrol, that I was going to order a pair of medium sized knee sleeves that fitted real tight. So today I did this:
1. Applied a good amount of Absorbine brand race horse relief liniment gel on both knee caps pre workout.
2. Did a good 12-15 minutes of brisk walking on machine
3. Did 3 sets of 20 reps of light weight legs xtensions with 100 pounds
4. Applied both knee wraps on knees
5. Executed 8 sets of front squats (ass to grass) with perfect form. limited each set to 5 reps..but emphasized on perfect form and full ROM and correct breathing technique.
6. And enjoyed a completely pain free workout with zero knee pain during and post workout.
Front squats are golden..I compared it to the back squat. Its night and day difference and helps the knees tremendously. Back squats murder my knees..especially ass to grass on bottom position. Wanted to share this with u guys. Give it a try.
