Long story short, a few weeks after my last post, I hurt my knee AGAIN. I seemed to be recovering (managed to get into that JM DVD a few times in early December) and then it flared up for no reason. A few doctors' appointments later, I'm scheduled for an ACL repair surgery in two weeks. I plan to use this site to keep accountable with the PT exercise, but come to think of it, I really need to exercise before the surgery too. Let's keep that here too.
BTW, I'm also keeping my weight down with dieting through www.myfitnesspal.com. I highly recommend it.
ACL Rehab Exercises
Heel Slide: 20 ea. side
Prone Knee Flexion: 3 sets of 10 ea. side
Thera-Band Hamstring Curls: 3 sets of 10 ea. side (orange band)
Heel Raises: 3 sets of 10 ea. side (+10 both heels)
Wall Squat with Pillow: 20 x 10 sec. ea. (some actually 15 sec. but 200 sec. total)
Wall squats were hell, but I did 'em!
