Yeah just want Ginger said - if the pain is kind of achey and stiff just above your knee and throughout your thigh, that's muscle pain. But if it's definitely right on/around you're knee, it's almost certainly the joint. The way I think of it is this: when my knees are hurting, it's kind of like if it hurt much more I'd be limping, whereas when I'm just (msucle) sore from squatting, my legs are sore but I'm not going to be limping any time soon, it's more just an all-over ache... does that make any sense? Women have more problems with their knees generally, mostly because of the shape of our bodies (we have bigger hips, and then that kind of tapers down, putting pressure on the knees). hth
