Ok, so first I hurt my back and now my knees are being a pain. Went to my chiro for the back and it's a disk issue which is under control, but I was told 'no more leg presses'. Now my knees are acting up and from all the searching and reading I have done it sounds like I have Patellar Tendonitis and squats are out. Right now I'm concentrating and getting the knees better by following the R.I.C.E steps and introduced some knee work that strengthens the muscles around the knees without straining the knees. Also, I've added some major stretching work and that seems to be helping both the back and knees. The last step will happen in a couple days when I go in for a pro fitting to confirm the bike is setup right...
Now the question...Once everything is better what the heck do I do if I can't do squats or leg presses?? That was a major part of my off season weight training....
