Can't bend knee to parallel
So since back in June i smashed my knee against a pole and i took the time to let it recover. I was able to do squats properly for a while. But then i ended up injurying the same knee when i was practicing knees on my heavy bag. Didn't end up getting too much rest time, as i was pretty active over the following days, and its been a bitch since.
My big problem is i can't go any lower than lets say 15 to 20 degrees above parallel before a pain my knee arises.
My question here is what exercies can i do in the mean while? I've been doing my deadlifts straight legged lately to compensate, but i havne't been able to squat at all. This really messes up my weekly split, what can i use in the meantime instead of squats?
Just looking for a suggestion of how you may have coped with an injury. I'll be heading to a physio soon enough to also get their recommendations.
Suggestions?
