[quote=Anonymous]I'm actually working to rebuild my knees after many years of running too much too fast and lifting too heavy with insufficient mobility. I'm doing a program that progressively increases the load and range of motion of challenging movements (e.g. slow stepdowns where you step forward/down off a box, single leg squats). Both of those used to kill my knees. Now I do 10x10 of both on each leg with no pain. My knees feel creaky after each of the 3 workouts a week, but I can do everyday life movements (getting up from a chair without using my hands, squatting down to pick something off the floor) without being super careful and moving in slow motion. Yesterday after my workout I was doing 24" box jumps with no pain. Before starting this program, I hadn't jumped AT ALL in probably 5 years. [/quote]
