I'm just getting into doing leg workouts to re-build the major muscle groups of my legs because they atrophied in the past year. I've been using machines for this. I've been doing leg workouts for about a month now.
Today I have some knee pain on one leg. I had proper form during my workout, and the pain went away when I stretched my quads today.
I include all major muscle groups in my workout for the most part. My concern is that maybe one muscle group is becoming over-developed and this is causing instability in my knee joint.
Is there any way to know for sure that this is the cause? I don't know how to properly diagnose this. It's not like there are huge weight differences in the areas I'm working out. It's all pretty symmetrical. And please don't tell me to see a doctor, they don't know anything.
I almost never have knee pain, so there's no underlying condition. The pain is on the lateral (outside) side.
