Try doing 1000 Hindu Squats without stopping...those bad knees will clear right up.

What's an ACL and MCL?
When I was 17 I managed to screw up my knees with a combination of doing the splits without warming up and jogging over hills with a heavy pack, so my sympathy is with you.

ACL - Anterior Cruciate Ligament
MCL - Medial Collateral Ligament


knight_errant - Next time use www.google.com :) Use 'ACL/MCL knee'



Blanky - 1000 Hindu squat is really overdoing it.

Some Black guy - Speaking from experience, I would first suggest you do to a physiotherapist to assess how badly damaged your knees are.

From that point you will likely be started on the wobble board, and some leg presses.

For rehab I do squat, starting out with bodyweight, moving at a slow pace, so as not to strain the ligaments further.
