[quote=Anonymous]I would not avoid squats because they are a very basic and important movement to be able to do, especially as we age. I would however, have your form checked. Are you doing barbell back squats? Are your knees caving in or pressing out? Does your knees go over your toes? This can be a sign of poor ankle mobility and can be helped with stretching and ankle mobility work. Is your stance wide enough? Do your knees hurt even when you use less weight? Starting with things like goblet squats are a good way to slowly build strength and strengthen supporting muscles as you build to heavier squats. [/quote]
