I have been experiencing some instability in my left knee for the last five days, possibly due to strained ligaments. I think the cause was sitting too long in a seiza position to increase plantar flexion of my ankles. I will have the knee checked out by a doctor next week.
I have been training Simple & Sinister for about 7 months. Even with my knee instability, I think I will still be able to do swings, but I'm not certain about get-ups (mainly because of the stress that that my knees feel in the lunge position). If it turns out that I cannot perform get-ups for a while (or ever), are there one or two other exercises I can substitute for the get-ups that will complement the swing? Thanks.
