FT Questions....

[Scott Stevenson]

My last few leg workouts I've developed some pain in the outside ligament area of my lower/outside knee cap of my right leg.

Pressing type movements don't seem to aggravate it but extensions do.

So I think I'll have to look into hack squats with my feet lower on the platform, sissy squats, smith hacks, etc to use as a quad exercise.

If that doesn't work is it ok to use another thigh exercise?

Right now I'm using tier II so it's two thigh and on quad exercise.

I can't really give you any answer as far as that without having seen you. (I don't even have a diagnosis.)

I personally do the following in cases like this:

1.) Figure out what the issue is and treat it. (I can mostly do this myself, but you'd need to seem a practitioner, possible.)

2.) Work around the area using pain as my guide.


With overuse types of "niggles" (UK term) it's not uncommon if caught early and addressed that you can work around them. I intentionally set up FT with this in mind, b/c I've had to do it a good bit over the years.
