    Leg Extensions Bad for Knees?

    Makes logical sense. You wouldn't drive your car if it was making a sound like this. No sound with squats, hacks , leg press etc. I am in this for the long haul. Not making any long term sacrifices just to satisfy my ego in the present. Train to be well.;)

    Leg Extensions Bad for Knees?

    Thanks for your ideas guys. I don't feel quite as freaked out about it now. I have no pain at all with it. After much self diagnosis on the internet...LOL.... I think it could be fairly common. One tip I did discover was that super slow reps on the leg extension may in fact put the tendon...

    low bar squatting

    Makes logical sense to me! Plus When ever I do High bar squats I tend to stick my bum out and feel a lot of internal pressure in my face, eyeballs and neck. Nose feels tingly and salty like I have been dumped in the surf. ie. when maxing on final lifts. I seem to be squatting through my face...
