Today was my leg day and while doing squats my left knee started to hurt real bad. I wasn't doing ATG, just normal parallel squats. Anyone ever had this sort of problem and maybe help me out with it?

I believe there was a post like this a few days ago?
Anyways, i believe some of the problems stated were: too much weight or bad form. Also may want to stretch before squatting as well.Cutting Goal : 185-190lbs
11/06/09 : 184lbs
12/06/09 : 189lbs
01/06/10 : 194lbs
02/06/10 : 196lbs
03/06/10 : 195lbs
04/06/10 : 199lbs
05/06/10 : 201lbs
06/06/10 : 198lbs
07/06/10 : 195lbs

Nah man. The weight was 80kg(180 lbs) which is practically nothing for squat. I always strech before workout and as far as i can tell my form is ok. I tried warming up my knees with some knee circles and a few minutes on a static bike, but didn't help.

Knees going over your feet while squatting? Or are they behind?
Fish oils?

You might want to try full squatting. It's easier on your knees.

^.
When people say try full squats, is there any difference between a full squat, and ATG squat?
