    Has anyone experienced a bruised knee *right above the knee actually) from deadlifts? I must be lowering it too fast hitting the knee on the way down. So is there anyone being a clown like me bruising up a kneecap?

    You're lowering the bar wrong.

    Ahh, I guess I am breaking the knees too early. Right.. the bar can't travel straight down if it has to come around the knees. Duh. that's why i'm a junior member
