Re: Knee pain, candies and 3 pinners

Sit down..extend leg straight out..lift and hold some..repeat.. This will strengthen the knee's supporting muscles.. Rest..heat and cold.. Also use Ibuprofen therapy for swelling and pain.. Rest..

Re: Rottefella chili + Atomic Access (191 cm)

Oldschool would be to use chord center ..It's probably close enough for comfort..
