Tuesday came and went for most. Bright skies, perfect weather, life is good.
Finished a long day at work. Lunch was good. Whole wheat chicken wrap, advocadoe, mustard, lettuce, tomatoe...and one amazing pickle.
Met up with my trainer for legs. Most lifters skip leg training...but not me.
Workout was going good.
We were on my 3rd set of weighted walking lunges.
I lost my balance and pushed off my toes...heard a loud CRACK POP...my left knee twisted out...leg was like jello...and I fell...fast and hard
After a minutre of agonizing pain I was able to get up and we tested my leg...3 sets of bodyweight step up, 25 reps per leg...4 sets of leg presses...4 plates a side, 20 reps
Dumbell squats...2 sets of 15
Dumbell stiff leg deads...2 sets of 20
Very sore that night...woke up screaming in pain
Next day, leg began to swell by the hour...bruising began...calf, ham, upper quad, major bruising...felt like vomitting all day...leg is swollen like a nuclear coconut
My boss sent me home early from work...i got an appointment at the doctor...took xrays...nada...drained my knee...only some blood came out...will get mri on monday now that i have insurance
Day after he drained my knee...limp has gone away...my only pain is in itb band...and its really only stiff when i try to bend my knee back
Just a speedbump...dont worry guys
as a positive note...i will be in my bed all weekend icing my knee...so at least i will get to post a lot this weekend on here
