Hi all,

Just started with the Knee ability zero program as i have had Knee pain in my right knee for months now. Tried improving my side glute strength, for months but that did not work at all.

For a few times i have tried ATG split squats but I can't get into any position (even my front foot elevated) pain / discomfort free. Should I keep trying them or just focus on petrik step (and the variant on a slant board) for a week or 4 first?

If yes, should the sets/reps be increased to compensate for not doing the ATG split squats?

And if yes, which is prefered? Petrik step or the version on the slant board?

Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I have a Delonghi La Specialista Opera machine and the coffee puck often sticks to the machine after removing the portafilter. I've tried less coffee, finer grinds, coarser grinds but nothing seems to help.

Is this a known issue? Can it be solved?

p.s. I'm cleaning my machine after this post because it looks disgusting. I know.
