My physical therapy has hit a different stride. I’m off the ankle weights and “extend and hold for five seconds, thirty repetitions” stuff. I’m on the machines. Leg press, leg extension, thigh adductor/abductor, and just today I started on the elliptical. Five minutes at high speed was enough to leave me drenched in sweat, but after icing my knee I was walking better than I have in months. Putting my knees through a solid workout never fails to leave them feeling great. The only downside to this is that I’m only doing physical therapy sessions for my left knee because it was the only one that was in really super terrible shape. My right knee also needs work, but I’m having to do that on my own, and now that I’m beyond the stuff I can do at home I need to start hitting the gym to rehab that side. Right now my left knee is actually better off than my right.
