I am recovering from a knee injury and I went from squatting 315s to only 135lbs now. My knees aren't the same anymore, but I am working to try to get back where I was before.

I heard several people tell me that leg extensions are bad for the knee. Is this true?

I've never heard about leg extension being harmful to the knees 👀
However one of my professors have been injured from the leg press

i'veheard leg extension machine is teh suck but i don't know the reasoning behind it

Places excessive pressure on the patella(?)

The leg ext and I think the ham curl machines are both bayyad for your knees

squats and deads

u can lay down on stomach and do bicep curls... dont hurt ur knees
as per brofessors advice

places more pressure on the patella than squats iirc


but can still do it if not dumb af with weight

this

wouldn't worry about it if it doesn't hurt doing 'em.

you're gonna have a hard time training quads without some sort of knee extension
