I've got to admit I am finding the ATG squats a challenge. I started doing some faster running 6 weeks ago (not "hard", but more strides and tempo-pace intervals, so mechanically faster than I was used to). Then I started KOT 3 weeks ago. My lower quads (or above-knees or whatever you call it) got really sore and just wouldn't recover until I took about 5 days off knee/quad stuff. And the first split second "coming out of the bottom position" feels quite painful in an "am-I-straining-something " way. A pity, as I love that stretch in the bottom position.

Do the cognoscenti come out of these by pushing "back" with hips in the first instance, or "up"? Seems to make a big difference, as it does with a normal squat.
