^ the past few days, I started taking a calcium and vitamin d supplement to hopefully build stronger bones, but I don't know if that's the cause or not. Last time I got my levels tested, I was low on vitamin D. I definitely have some wear and tear, but the soreness does subside, and was only triggered from working out.
@InbetweenDreams I actually don't get sore knees when I run. I did simple circuits of straight-leg deadlifts, thrusters, bent-over rows, and squat thrusts, all with dumbbells in both hands. The squat thrusts might technically be full burpees, IDK the difference between the two, but I did the pushup and jumped up at full force. The squats from the thrusters maybe might have put the most pressure on my knees, since I had added weight in my hands.
I've been looking up vids by physical therapists to hopefully find some at-home exercises to build stronger knees, but I'm still kind of clueless in everything fitness. I'll definitely need to find someone to teach me proper form.
