And of course abs which was a circuits of bosu ball crunches, medicine ball twists and the almighty ab wheel. 15reps of each 3 times thru. -

<p>what noise is your knee making? a clicking (bone/joint) or do you think it's tendons/ligaments? Have you played around with your stance at all? </p>
-
Nah not a click so much, more a cracking or grinding type of souund near bottom of the squat movement. Kinda wondering if its always been there, juust never hear it with my sounds on. <br><br>
Played with stance a wee bit but not a lot. Just making sure feet are pointing out slightly and continuing on in direction knees are pointing. -
<p>hmm is it just a noise or can you 'feel' something going awry at that part of the squat? guess it must be the former or you'd have noticed it even when working with sounds on?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Have you hassled your PT about it? maybe get him to eyeball your form just in case. If it isn't hurting it might not be anything to worry about</p> -
<p>Yeah dont really feel it at all mate.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Haven't caught up with Bobby for a couple weeks actually but did a yarn with the other PT about it last week and she gave me a few tips etc and exercises to do but usually I end up looking at her more than I listen.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>As a reminder she is the brunette in --> <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=546514568769484'>https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=546514568769484</a></p>

<p>ha ha I was going to troll you about her too (thanks for the link he he)</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Dang, if it isn't hurting and your form is ok then go hard!</p> -
<p>Haha troll away.....she's an interesting one alright. Seems to be doing alot of promo work at the moment. Random posters popping up at the gym etc.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Should mention that I got some of the whey she promotes last week (NarLabs) and hell it is bloody good stuff. Low carb and fat (about 2.5g of each per serving) and its dam nice. Tastes like chocolate zap with water. $99 for the 5lb tub though so a bit more than I like to pay but can see myself using alot more of it.</p> -
<p>Cardio and abs this am.</p>
<p> </p>

<p> </p>
<p>Then abs - 3 sets of 15 each of weighted decline crunches (10 then 15kg), weighted side bends (15kg), weighted decline twists (10kg). Don't do the weighted side bends often as don't want a super thick waste but like to include them occasionally. Finished with 2 sets of 10 (each side) russian twists using the swiss ball.</p>

<p>Low carb day ahead. Ho hum.</p> -

<p>Cardio and abs etc today.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Started with 15mins on the spin bike before PT turned up and started doing body fat measures etc for those keen to check in. Weight pretty much the same and body fat down another 0.2% so all good.</p>
<p>Did 20mins HIIT on the cross trainer after that and then stretching and foam roller on the legs and glutes.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Finished with some abs - 4 sets of hanging leg raises and 2 sets each of cable chops low to high and high to low for both sides. Bit avg abs effort really today.</p> -
