I wasn't going to post this as I feel embarrassed that I am always asking for help.
I tried to use the search but couldn't find any answers.
But Depalma asked on the HIIT thread why would I cut down on my cardio since I love it.
Okay so with sprinting first I had calf pain and got over that; then as I was increasing my HIIT on my TM I have gotten pain in the back of my knees --not the knee joint but the tendons, ligaments? behind my knees.
A consistent achy feeling.
I tried icing and it didn't do anything.
It was getting better with a day off and I should probably not have done cardio day before yesterday.
I didn't do HIIT just an hour of fast walking (4.3)and yesterday I did UBWL and Abs.
Today is my day off but now again I have that ache behind my knees.
Tommorrow I am supposed to do HIIT and the next day lower body squats, deadlifts and lunges.
I LOVE to workout but I"m scared that if I push through this knee stuff I'll have to take more time off.
I never had pains when I was just doing power walking, but I love sprinting even more.
Should I just do UBWL this week?
And stay off my knees?
My daughter and husband think I'm too obsessed, but honestly I just feel so much better when I exercise it's hard for me to miss a session.
Wish I had a personal trainer I could ask, but I'm doing this all on my own --so very much appreciate that I can ask you guys -hope I don't sound too whiney.
