A sharpe pain in my knee cap when doing burpees and a sore lower back in the same place i hurt it before. IDK how to explain what kind of pain it is, but it seems to hurt more when i sit and lay down than it does when im lifting boxes.

Knee- Rest it, it is probably a strained and inflammed tendon or ligament in your knee cap. RICE it.

Back- I'm assuming its muscular pain not that of the actual spine?

The knee only does it when i do burpees.

Wes...if you haven't already, I'd dig back a few pages in my log and read some stuff Sharla has written about the correlation of lower back and knee pain. Then into some of the links she referenced. I've been down this road before...and when she wrote that I had a major lightbulb moment. I had my lower back worked on recently by a sports therapist/chiropractor, as i did last year also...and again my knee pain went away. I do think there is a connection there for sure in the two, atleast in my situation, as was also with Sharla...which tells me it is likely a more common thing then many of us realize.
