This week was rough. In my first week back from home I'm already sleepy, hungry, and injured. During the last set of squats I heard my knee pop. I can't walk without some pain. I did another rep and called it done for squats. I blame it on not warming up properly. I thought the walk to the gym and starting with the bar would be enough. Guys, warm up well. Shanker and Frank already do this, but for those of you without a 10min-15min warmup you should seriously consider getting one. I will still compete in the meet. Hopefully my knee heals until then, but if not, I'll just settle for a sub-par total. Its my first meet so it doesn't really matter.

Do your warmup.

  3. Thanks a lot guys. I haven't been to the doc yet, but it looks like some kind of ACL/MCL partial tear. If I don't compete at the meet, I'm still going to go support you all.
