Hi guys,
I’ve been having pain in the left side of my knee/top of shin for a week or two. The pain is only present when applying force to force myself upwards out of a squat - I can go all the way down (ass to grass) fine but as soon as I try to stand back up the pain is immense. This happens with just body weight squats too. Also happens when standing from a chair/toilet etc.
I think its either ITBS, a problem with my fibula or maybe because I have pronated feet.
I did some body weight squats earlier on the outside of my feet (actually on the outside, so inside of feet and big toes weren’t even touching the floor) and had no pain at all.
Any ideas what it could be? I’m currently doing 5/3/1 so am leaving squats out of this cycle to see if resting helps.
Thanks in advance
