Should I be wearing a knee braces (compression/sleeve type) for doing squats and stuff? I've had knee issues for a while, but nothing requiring surgery just a little pain every so often


No you don’t need them. Now they may be nice as a support item but in the meantime I’d focus on volume based leg work so you can build up the supporting muscles around the knee before doing any heavy low rep sets.

Stick to an 8-12 rep range, find a stance that works well and focus on proper form.

I’ve also found my back and knees really like front squats and the more I did that the more I progressed with my regular back squats as well.

Did yard work for two hours and then spent 30 minutes with a handsaw cutting part of a felled tree into logs for my fire pit. Dang. I forgot how winded you can get sawing wood.
Yeah, it's definitely a workout. lol
I did some yard work myself after work today. Back at hitting the weights tomorrow.

Definitely a bonified workout, swinging an axe, using a hand saw etc will get the old pumper working in no time.
