I only eat chicken when I'm prepping meals for work cause its the most easiest to bake and less of mess and tastes good.

I don't squat; knee issues.
Deadlift around 405.
had meniscus surgery two years ago and got back into squating light weights. take it easy and go deep with the light weights and work your way back up. remember squats aren't meant to be a high reps exercise. -

Man I'm 22 and I already feel my right knee giving when I do my deep squats
You guys with your surgeries got me thinking I'm gonna be losing my ? soon -
@Bcotton5 @Trashboat
my best advise is to stop doing leg extension. take it out of your leg workout completely.
- stretch before and during leg workouts
- incorporate hamstring curls into the mix
- incorporate dumbbell step ups into the mix. moderate weight nothing heavy (watch youtube for correct method)
- don't forget the calfs, again moderate weights
ppl tend to do certain exercises and overload the weights because they feel they should be lifting more; DON'T.
Feel free to pm me for any advise. [genuine inquiries]

Going heavy on leg extensions is like asking for Snap City to happen.

lol I can do heavy squats, deadlifts and leg press with no problems, but at times, even going light on leg extensions hurt my knees. I still do them, because it feels good super setting them with leg curls. -
i have no more meniscus on the outside of my right knee... i'm not missing any gains from not doing leg extension. i still lift heavy on legs, but i had to rebuild strength in my right knee before going back heavy.
So fellaz/ladies, if you feeling pain take it easy and build your strength first. -
