    Side Split Causing Pain on Inside of Knee

    Side Split Causing Pain on Inside of Knee

    ​

    my flexibility goal is to achieve a side split. (I have a long way to go)

    If I push the stretch above, i'm limited by a sharp pain on the inside of my left knee (circled). In other words, my abductors don't feel fully stretched before I need to pull back due to knee pain. Avoiding the stretch for a few days seems to reduce pain, but it comes back quickly if I push too hard.

    After some casual googling, I think I need to strengthen the connective tissue on the inside of my knee, but I'm not sure how to do this safely.

    Do you have any advice for me to achieve my goal?

    Also my kitty cat Root would like to say hello.

    Edit: I said abductors but meant adductors

    Strength does not come by doing what you could do. It comes by doing things you believed you could not do.

    What muscle am I rolling when I foam roll my quads, it's so tight that the front of my leg has a left and right side?

    Posted: 19 Jan 2021 03:46 PM PST

    I'm trying to figure out why my right leg has a specific pattern of tightness. Down the front of the quad, when I'm foam rolling it -- let's say from above the knee to 2/3rds of the way all the way up, the front of my thigh has this big bump. I can't roll directly on it, at a certain point I fall either to the left or right of it. (I guess it must go across the leg as well as up and down). What is this? My right hip has a whole host of injuries and I have a hamstring tendon tear as well.

    I'm just curious what muscle is clearly being sent into overdrive on that right side? The left side is normal, I can just roll up and down, but the right side sends me swerving left and right to stay on the roller. They don't look different though. I know why this must have happened (weak hamstring -- I have a big column of muscle down my right spine to show it). But can't quite figure out from diagrams what the name of this situation is. If anyone knows that would be so nice.

    In performing this stretch, why might I feel "pain" after I return the muscles to a neutral state?

    Posted: 19 Jan 2021 02:48 PM PST

    Before anyone asks: Yes, I've stopped my routine and plan on seeing an ortho very soon. I'm just curious!

    Sitting on the edge of a low table with my feet extended straight forward, toes pointed up. I lean forward attempting to keep an entirely straight back, and I begin to feel some weakness/hollowness/"pain"-ish around L3-L4, but it's manageable and easily ascribed to just using the muscle. However, upon bending my legs back to a sitting position, I feel an acute version of that weakness/hollowness that spikes just for a second and then disappears.

    I also have a similar hollow feeling in that area when I do lateral raises with both hands - not distinctly feeling like I'm using that muscle, but that that second of my body just doesn't want to work.

    Any idea what's going on here? Any similar experiences?

    Drills for Cheststand

    Posted: 19 Jan 2021 07:31 AM PST

    I really want to start practicing to get my cheststand (I've never done one before), but I have I history of jumping into things too quickly that I end up injuring myself. So I was just wondering if there are any drills or exercises that I can do before attempting the cheststand, or even just a test to see if I'm ready to go for it
