High I've been experiencing really bad knee pain from jumping (and landing) on double mini, especially when I do front somi or barani mounts. The pain in my knee gets so bad that after training I can't walk and the next day I find it hard to climb stairs. I ice my knee and the pain goes away after a day, but does anyone know what causes this? (am I landing wrong?). Help!
 
If you are having pain when climbing the stairs it probably is an overuse injury. GO and see a sports medicine doctor and they can check you out and diagnose your problem. Knee pain is very common in T&T.
 
Agreed, go to a doctor. I can think of over a dozen things that might theoretically be the problem, but as none of us is either your doctor or your coach I'm not going to make any guesses.
