PCL Recovery - Strength Training

Last post August 7th

Each week I try to step it up a little more. The only thing different is adding more reps with 540 and then I will add more weight once I feel like my knee/leg is stable enough to control the weight.

Cybex Squat Press - all sets were full range (plate = 45 lbs.) with feet close together.
Set 1 - empty
Set 2 - 2 Plates (90 lbs) x 20 reps
Set 3 - 4 Plates (180 lbs) x 10 reps
Set 4 - 6 Plates (270 lbs) x 10 reps
Set 5 - 8 Plates (360 lbs) x 10 reps
Set 6 - 10 Plates (450 lbs) x 10 reps
Set 7 - 12 Plates ( 540 lbs) x 6 reps
Set 8 - 12 Plates ( 540 lbs) x 6 reps
Set 9 - 10 Plates (450 lbs) x 6 reps 
Set 10 - 8 Plates (360 lbs) x 6 reps

Hack Squat
Set 1 through 4 - 100lbs x 6
Have to be cautious with this movement. 

Standing Leg Curl
Experimenting with light weight for several sets to see how it feels. I could feel the PCL in this movement so I will be cautious.

Seated Leg Extensions
Used light weight for several sets and it felt okay.

Squats
Just cannot do at the moment even at body weight and holding onto something. Not a good discomfort. Will have to really ease into this movement and I hope to eventually get back to bar squats. Amazing that I cannot do squats, but I can do hack squats.
