I want to explore a bodyweight exercises, for variety or when I will find myself on vacation without weights. I read NW and I am practicing OAPU and Pistols a few days in a week, right now I can do them with about 60-70% range of motion.
My left knee ACL was reconstructed and rehabilitated after it was torn in 2014. I'm feeling good about my knees, but I have to admit that ROM in left one is smaller than in right (can sit fully on right heel, but just a little on left), I will work on it. Sometimes I get some squeaky sounds in both knees. No pain at all.
My question is: are Pistols safe for knees with some history? I mean, they feels ok, but I don't know if in long term they will do more harm than good?
