Forgot to add

I went to the doctor last week b/c my knees have been bothering me. turns out I have Patella Tenditis(common in athletes and lifters). nothing serious, but he said to take things easier and just see how things feel. this is why I did squats last today....but, I just did a little bit of research and it turns out I should lay off leg extensions, lunges and squats till things are 100%. so, I will be doing leg presses and more leg presses for the time being starting next week. so don't think im pussin out hahaha. I have posted an article in the sport injuries section for all of you to see
