Who else /kneeproblems/? I fractured my femur, broke my kneecap

1. how did you do that
2. what degrees of knee flexion hurt? you could just do leg press or machine hack squat in a range of motion that doesn't hurt

Took em 2 years to diagnose the torn acl.
I'm 13 (bout 60%) weeks into recovery from surgery, had a hamstring graft...

Used to deadlift 250kg but I don't think i'll ever be able to push hard.

I look back at pictures of how ripped I was sometimes.

The injury poured gasoline onto my smouldering nihilism and depression and I had to quit my job.

I'm in a much better job now and they have no idea the reason I left the last one is because of depression. Perks of fucking your boss and getting her to call you daddy.

Avoid gettin injured if you can but when it happens you have to set new goals.

1. rugby. I was kicked in the knee while running to score
2. I can't go depth. can go about 3/4 of the way down before the pain becomes unbearable and then my knee juts inwards

Just got IT band syndrome last week after doing some retarded elliptical machine. I've been doing compression and ice, as well as some physical therapy stretches and exercises. Gonna do that for a few weeks before I start squatting and deadlifting again.

Go to physical therapy

I dislocated both my knee caps in high school. Had to have reconstructive surgery for both. Basically became a soft body all the way through high school.

Honestly, after recovery didn't have much problems with pain while lifting, it's more the dull ache I have all the time now. I just stuck to hack squats for a good while, and my physical therapist helped me out a ton.
