The patellar tendons on my knees hurt. I'm still able to do squats and presses. But regardless....I do the workouts with slight pain. I use the knee wraps when I go really heavy.
But always after a leg workout, the tendons hurt a lot! Walking is a bit painful. But by the next day, the pain is gone. What is pissing me off is that this is affecting me from pushing really heavy weights. And of course, I have to suffer through the workout and after the workout.
So here are my questions for you guys. IF you care to help me.
#1 Which leg exercises should I avoid at all costs? Some say leg extensions and others say hack squats. I would like to hear more opinions
#2 What can I put on my knees to help alleviate the pain? A cream or ointment of some sort? Somebody told me to put a cream like Ben-Gay and then keep my knees covered with knee wraps. NOT actual lifting knee wraps. But the ones you just slip on.
