A member asked:

My knee hurts so much after squats day at the gym. it feels hot and it's twiching. what can i do?

Ice it stretch it: You over did it. Sport injuries occur with increasing your time, your distance, your weight. Any exercise has to start slow and low. Your physician can clarify if there is any lasting damage
