Hi All,
I am 5 weeks out from bi-lats. Last week I was cleared by my OS to "go forth and prosper". ;)
Now I have been doing my PT exercises and going to PT twice a week and to the gym the other days. Do about a mile and half at a power walk on the treadmill and spend about 15 minutes on the elliptical (just 'cause l like it). I am still a little bruised and not quite my usual hyperactive amounts of energy. But I am fully back to my old routines -which is a wonderful thing.
Any way, I tried to run on the treadmill yesterday - Not pretty. MY brain says OK lets go but it seems like my body says Huh? Now the OA in my hips had gotten so bad that I haven't run since last March but I had switched to Resistance training and swimming to stay in shape.
Are my hip flexors that beat up (direct anterior) that they just can't handle it or is just too early? Or is this a proprioception thing I need to push through?
Any ideas?
Thanx,
Donna
