Knee friendly FT

OK, so avoiding things that cause pain will be a first step.

If this is from an injury, I'd get it evaluated if at all possible by someone who has orthopedic expertise, so a physiotherapist or physical therapist (whatever the term may be there) or an orthopedic surgeon.

Do you ever get any popping that you either hear, feel or see in that knee / under that knee cap.

I personally (if I were you) would start doing foam rolling and stretching that quad quite a bit. Some of this could be from patellar tracking, as dens' solution is suggesting.

As far as training, driving with your heels on leg presses with feet wider and higher on the food plate, and using wider stances in general may help.

I would also apply kwan loong oil to the knee cap and painful areas and leave a small piece of tissue soaked in it under the neoprene sleeve before and then after training for about 30 min. You can do this once on off-days, too, so you're treating it 4-5 times / week. I'd use this to try to bring the inflammation under control along with the above strategies for 2-3 weeks, and then ease back on the KW oil over the next week or two.

Make sure to avoid exercises that cause pain and simply switch to something else on that day, even if it's not in the plan.

Thanks I just put the oil and a foam roller in my amazon basket, so it will arrive when I get back onshore.

I already do a lot of stretching after each exercise, but I have time to do more out here, so will up and also do light on my cardio days.
My cardio is just 20 mins of bicycle, since many have told me that´s good for the knees.

I´m not sure I can get any therapists to look at if, because for that I a referral from my own doctor. Would a sport massage therapist or so be at any help, because those I can go to without a referral from my doctor.

I never heard any popping or so, for the past 19 years it have been so minor I would never really put much interest to it. Before when I had any pains, I would relax for about a week and not feel a thing for years again. But I guess with age it´s getting worse.

Thanks guys, really appreciate the help!
