Week 5, days 6 and 7

Tried to take it as easy as possible during the weekend. Skipped going to a party Saturday, stayed home instead. Spent most of the time on the couch or the bed without the brace on.

Lots of ibuprofen.

Decided to skip ALL exercises. Felt some pain in the shin on the release of a quad contraction, so decide to skip quad sets. Didn't want to do the stretches because that may irritate hamstrings (probably a dumb idea).

Sunday the leg seemed to get better, not nearly as bad in the shin anymore. Some clicking when flexing the leg, but that's not a big deal.

The pain is less in the shin and more in the knee itself now. Perhaps that's from lack of use of the knee. Should've done the stationary bike or something over the weekend at least.

Meh, the pain is annoying.
