candyman: what are the eccentric patella exercises you do? Would be good to get some new ideas.

Jules: I do them on the leg extension machine, that you can use for VMO strength also. On a weight which is near your max for a double leg lift, lift up with both legs, then take one leg off and slowly lower the with the leg you want to strengthen!

You having some problems with patella tendon?

candyman: yeah, more with my R knee which is meant to be my good one, I like the idea of the eccentric exercises though, will have to give them a try.
