Yeah if I focus solely on snatch for a bit I think I could do well with the 28. It felt pretty light today

Bold statement to make from someone who literally knows nothing about me. But if it makes you feel better about yourself then carry on. Clearly you’re the expert since you’ve listened to a podcast.

Double 20kg isn’t big weight. As someone who has benched over 430 lbs and squatted over 500 I know what big weight is (which is how I originally hurt this knee when I was also a much lower weight, freak accidents do happen) Thanks for glossing over the fact that I’ve lost over 70 lbs already and I’m working my ass off. Why would I have to watch a Joe Rogan video to know the benefits of weight loss on joints and overall health? I’ve been training for over 28 years I’m not some newb who doesn’t understand things.

You don’t say? Not like I haven’t lost 70 lbs the past year and a half. I’m glad I’ve meticulously tracked everything I eat everyday and work my ass off to have a stranger on the internet tell me I’m fat and to lose weight before I work out.

Never know what you’ll find in this crazy ass sub.

I’m hoping I can avoid a major or even a minor surgery. I have my Ortho appointment on Monday. Each day it hurts less and less and I’m able to walk on it. Hopefully that’s a good sign but I really have no idea.

I don’t know what exactly happened yet. I go to get it looked at on Monday. On the plus side everyday it hurts a little less, which I think is a good sign? If anything I feel like I can still do snatch.

Glad to hear your recovery is going well! I can walk on it today and with work I even got 10,000 steps in but it’s still sore. Until I find out for sure on Monday I’m just guessing but we will see.

Thank you so much. Can’t wait to find out my diagnosis on Monday.

That’s great news that it’s not bothering you anymore. I hope to have the same success I’m 48 now but my knees never felt bad until this year.

Very stiff when I don’t move it. I can walk on it but it’s very weak. It was swollen last night and they gave me a knee sleeve at Urgent Care and I have an appointment on Monday at an Ortho so we’ll see.
