Leg Discomfort...

[ayjay23]

I've been squatting for about 5 to 6 moths now. I started at 115 (5 reps), now I'm doing 225 (5 reps).

This past week, I started to notice some discomfort on my left leg. It's in the back and outer side areas just above knee. The area of discomfort is pretty small actually (i.e., not the entire leg), and I only feel it when I go down in a squatting motion.


I'm planning to give this a rest for the next few days. Has anyone had this similar issue? And perhaps can share what they've done to it?
