yup

hurt my knee doing squats about three weeks ago. i do squats ass to the floor, and i got 405 for 3 reps, which was pretty gud for me since ive been doing high volume stuff for legs and never got under a heavy weight like that before. the next set with 315 at about 8 reps or so i felt my left knee pop out of its socket and away from my body, immediately racked the weight.. didnt reall hurt me so i continued training legs and even trained them again about 4 days later. then i was at work and one of the kids i was teaching to swim jumped off of me and kicked off of my left knee in order to get a head start for the wall. it hurt like a 8 out of 10 on a number scale and i was kind of in shock and numb throughout my leg. since that day i havent been able to move my leg too much, but after a few days of swelling it doesnt really hurt unless i bend it too far.

just got the mri done today. gonna kno on monday if i need surgery

Steroids perhaps were the factor.

I bet it was an existing injury that you made worse by heavy lifting.

Tearing your meniscus while doing squats at your age is very very rare, even on AAS.

Have you ever injured that area in the past playing sports or riding your dirt bike?

Take care of yourself man. Hope your knee heals quick.

First, you are only doing 405 for 3 with all of the drugs you are doing?
Next,you are out of what? You are not a professional athlete of any kind. You just can't train legs. Quit crying and get in the gym!

Get some cissus and alflutop for post surgery, if it comes to that. Also the obvious pharma GH

I tore my ACL but was racing motocross, a real badass sport not like gay bb.

Never got one injury from lifting, lift hard AND smart. Steroids the cause? Who knows? All you hear though is that your muscles grow faster than your ligiments and tendons can keep up with. Does this apply here?

That's usually a sign you might want to ease up for a while... I don'tthink knees are supposd to do that

what role will illegal steroids play in the rehab of said knee?

Coach is Back! · « **Reply #17 on:** July 16, 2010, 09:06:33 PM »

Its not the weight or squating deep, its the volume, overuse. Your not an athlete, you don't run and the meniscus does not heal, deal with it or get surgery, if you get surgery you'll walk out with no crutchs and will be back in the gym inside of a week, week in a half OR just not have it done. You DO have that choice.

He's 21, if he applies now he can have the surgery by the time he's my age and then go to hospice to "recover". LOL!
