People involved in fitness and bodybuilding often have various injuries. One of these problems is knee injury. True, why knees hurt after training and what to do in this case, not everyone knows.

It is recommended to perform basic exercises, such as squats, deadlifts, lunges. But it is necessary to follow the technique of execution and not to take too much weight at once. It is important to remember that the greater the importance is not the number of repetitions, but the correctness of their implementation. Isolating exercises are recommended for experienced athletes to use specific muscles that need to be tightened.
