You guys know how I had the leg infection last may. Ever since then my legs will not fire correctly or strong enough while doing exercises. Like while doing squats I will feel the front of the quad and it will be soft. I have still been able to make gains but it has been tooth and nail. At one point I was doing 7 sets of squats, 4 sets of hack squats, 4 sets of leg press, 3 sets of lunges and 5 sets of leg extensions. (There is no such thing as over training) anyway, all that did was destroy my knees and make the insides of my quads burn like hell, but I got nothing out of the sweep. I would not care if my legs were always like that but before that infection my sweep would blow up like nothing you have ever seen before, and would be vainy as hell. But now nothing. I have been through 50 different routines and nothing. It really has nothing to do with the routine, I had 27 inch quads my first show, and all I did was squats and some leg press.
Anyway, what type of doctor should I see about testing my legs for function, and maybe what is left inside. I posted a pic of my legs a while back and they make look normal but that is only because I have taught my body to flex a certain way, where I just drawl up the middle muscle (vasts intermediates sp) and it leave the sweep just hanging. It may look normal but it is soft as hell.
I know Big kiwi knows what it is like because I saw the pics of him at the last show and his right leg looked like it had been damaged by infection. I also know Cutler had a infection leaving his right leg smaller in the sweep than the left leg.
My family has helped me a bit and have had discussions about tissue being taken from my glutes and put back in the quads. But like with everything I have to fing the doctor with the most experience. May sound crazy but my insurience would actually pay for it becuase the risk my knees are at now is very high. All the pressure is on the joint and not the tissue.
Anyway any help would be great. Again I am just looking for a type of doc that I could see about this. thanks
