A few weeks back I was having some slight pain in my left patellar tendon while doing heavy squats (3-4rm or so). It wasn't anyhting that stopped me, just more of an annoyance. I dialed back the weight a couple sessions and all seemed well... By early last week, the pain in my left knee was gone, however in my next session my right knee began to hurt, and far worse. I went easy, but even with that it has gotten worse, to the point where I can't squat even light weights without pain, leg presses are only ok in certain positions, and deadlifts (conventional) hurt as well.
My two main questions -
how can I still train lower body effectively without squats, deads, or really any heavy movements or moves taht cause my knee to bend more than 90degrees?
suggestions on rehab exercises or other help?
any help is appreciated.
