Steve and others who responded to a question I posed a few weeks ago about the goblet squat. To recap, I've had some medial knee pain on my right knee which comes and goes. Had it for about 6 or 7 months, sometimes it bothers me and other times it doesn't. I had some treatment on it a couple of weeks ago and a couple of times since it flared up. It is on or around the site of an old MCL tear and the physio thinks that it is scar tissue causing friction on the fascia caused by possible tight adductors. I had it checked out by a doc to who ruled out ligament and meniscus issues agreeing that it was a soft tissue issue which she couldn't be sure about. I'm in the uk, that took up my 5 minute appointment time! I stopped running due to the injury as back then it was pretty painful. It is more of a dull pain now, on and off. So I wandered if the goblet squat would irritate it - hence my original post and here is a video that I would really appreciate a look at:

I've taken the liberty of this community's goodwill and knowledge base and posted a couple more videos for some form check, for further evaluation. I'm largely self taught, have had some kb instruction a while back but not from a sfg. First 1 hand swing with a 24, done from the front and side:

and then a get up with a 24:

No pain was present during any of the moves. Never have any issues with the swing, the goblet sometimes my knee is tight and on the right side lunge of the get up sometimes I get a twinge. Usually pain is present after sitting. I know there are a lot of considerations but if eyes can view my form then I can rule in/out possibilities. I've been foam rolling my calves, quads and adductors with little success. As always, really appreciate all inputs. Thanks a bunch, again.
