Knee alert...  patella tentar yadu yady ya.. it is call i believe.

It is affecting my squat.. as well as my jump..

i can still jump... with a bit more rest in between reps.  but squatting had becomes pain in the ass with dull pain..

It affected me so much, that.. i can only squat 340lbs a few reps.. (just months ago i was doing 385 3x3 easily)

I guess. i need to REST my knee.... (it is currently my strength Phase anyway)

What would you guys says, If just replace all my squat with Deadlift?
(i mean i could be doing RUSSIAN squat program with deadlift with different set of Weight of cause... or i can just go do some deadlift 5x5  monday wednesday friday)

I consider Deadlift less demanding on my knee..(may be more demanding on my lower back... if i am not careful)

I take Glucosamine Supplements and form roll now days

and started icing extensively after exercise and have a 15 min infra light session before sleep daily.

Not going well.
i think... i am jumping too much.

i mean.. I had been doing this for the pass 8 or 9 years.... and my knee were fine... untill now.

Many bro here was telling me how lucky I am.. as i am jumping on concrete floor.

I guess.. now.. is the time.. to take a break.

I was wondering i can can.... preform Box jump.. since it will take away the Landing impact.

but after jumping a few times.. i think.. much of the LOAD happen during the Pre Jump Loading phase....
with that in mind,  Jumping should be prohibited (regardless of the landing)

now.. i need to stop myself from jumping.

if squatting and jumping are causing pain, stop doing both. dead lifts, if you can do them without pain, are also a good strength-building exercise. they're obviously different from squats but it sounds like you might need to mix things up a little bit at the moment anyway, given the apparent injury.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.
