Hello Meso!
So about 6 months ago, i was sprinting down the hall (for no reason) and then i stepped wrong, which caused a very weird pain, but it wasn't bad. Then i noticed if i'm standing and try to squat down, my left knee, the one i hurt, has this sharp pain. So basically it only hurts if I put my weight on it and i bend it. I decided not to go to a doctor, and it did stop hurting after a week! But then after I do my leg extensions on the machine, only if i go over 100 pounds, It'll start hurting again for a week. That sharp pain is only there if i have weight on it and i'm bending it. It doesn't hurt when If i'm sitting down, or standing up and moving it through the full range of motion without weight on it.
I've never had pain from doing leg extensions before the injury, even when lifting way heavier. I don't get knee pain if I do leg extensions using 100 lbs, but if i go over that, like to 120lbs- This is still VERY easy to me (4x10), my knee will have a sharp pain when I squat down, with just my body weight; Lasts for about a week. I haven't had this knee pain in like a few months, since i've just been lifting 100lbs with leg extensions. But recently, I thought maybe my knee has recovered so I went up to 120.. Then BAM! Knee pain again
My knee doesn't hurt when I squat, leg press, leg curls, deadlifts, etc. Not even leg extensions, unless I do heavy weight with it, but it doesn't hurt right away. Usually starts hurting the day after. I've maybe missed one week of legs, since the injury; 6 months. So I don't think it's from lack of exercise, or muscle imbalance, as I train virtually EVERY part of my body. For my legs, I do squats, leg press, leg extensions, leg curls, calf raises, leg abduction, and leg adduction. Then on a separate day I'll do box jumps, dead lifts, and cleans to front squats.
Anyone ideas on what this may be?
