My knee pain improved from the hamstring work, but after walking down a staircase last week the pain came right back.  Either the hamstrings are not the ultimate solution, or I’ve now fixed the imbalance but years of damage are not so easily undone.  

F this shit, long term joint issues are absolutely depressing.  I’m hoping you guys figure this out soon so I can piggyback on your success.
