You say you are hearing some crunching noises, IMO, I would let a doctor check that out. You don't want to abuse the knees to a point where they need surgery or stop working on you..

In the meantime, that was a good workout...
Latest I heard was the leg extensions were a pretty useless and non-transferable exercise. I don't do them any more. There is little applicaility of a leg extension to reallife, unless, I guess you kick folks a lot or are a football punter.
