Yeah, I can't squat properly either.
Yet.
I'm determined to keep working on my body, whether I get there or not I'll keep working. I've got major mobility issues in both ankle dorsiflexion and lumbar extension, but the more I both learn and work, it seems that both are really traceable to the feet, and particularly the big toe.

Let's all keep working at it :-) I try to balance out what to ignore and what should get medical attention. I do have a cranky knee, and I've got to be careful with lunges, but I keep at it. I don't lunge so deep that it hurts - which means it isn't near as deep as it once was...but that is life. Sky King, are you bending forward or doing a hip hinge instead? Different ways to get there, but stick with what works!

The MCL is really feeling better and I'm getting stronger... but there is a deep knee pain that won't go away, I'm starting to think I may have torn the medial meniscus as well. *sigh* Oh well, that will heal or not, I'll just keep on working and see how it goes.

Okay, something is definitely wrong, my knee feels like its full of broken glass, straightening it is torture, and putting weight on it is getting more painful by the day. Guess I better call the docs office tomorrow.

ouch. boy do I feel for you right now. Make sure you are not getting a baker's cyst either. It could happen too from such injury. You don't want to add to your tear. no way.

Already have a lovely HUGE Bakers cyst. I won't be surprised if they try to convince me it's time for a replacement.

Got the appointment set with the ortho doc for 12/9, I'm going to ask for an MRI, it's time to see what is actually going on inside the knee.
