60x wtf has happened to my knee?!
60x OW!
It seems that getting more squatting volume/load in the last few weeks than I've been able to string together for a few months has swolified my quads to the extent that it's pulling my knee out of line. Any tension through my legs resulted in excruciating pain. Solution? Almost completely passive legs and much less tension

Very poor, but because I was effectively making it much harder this was still extremely fatiguing. Not terrible volume
