Day 18 – 30 Minutes of Cycling

I worked my knee on the recumbent bike tonight and despite my knee being a little squishy (it’s hard to explain). After 16 minutes I was able to do full revolutions and was able to cycle normally for the last 14 minutes. Woot! So I got my 30 minutes in and made some progress with my knee. I iced my knee for about an hour afterward but I don’t get credit for that

Day 17 – 30 Minutes of Cycling

My knee has ballooned and I am using a crutch to get around. I went to physio and my physiotherapist suggested doing as much as I can on the cycle. If I can’t do full revolutions (which I can’t) he suggested that I go as far as I can one way then go back the other way as far as I can. This will help increase my range of motion. I did this tonight for 30 minutes as my exercise. It wasn’t vigorous but it was all I was able to do.
Hopefully I can get this swelling under control and then I can get back on track. This injury is very disappointing and frustrating.

Day 16 – 80 Minutes of Soccer

Played soccer with my company team and then was able to get a second game in with my 5-a-side team from last year. I went over on my knee again so I need to ice my knee tonight and hope that the swelling goes down. I did 5 minutes on the when I got home to try and keep it loose but it is swollen and hard to move in a full rotation.
I hope that this knee gets better some day.

Another beautiful day meant that Cinn, That Baby and I were able to go for a walk to the park again today. Got some sun, a walk and some swing time with That Baby. Great day.

It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Cinn, That Baby and I went for a walk to the park today and put That Baby on the swings. I got my walk in at the same time.

Played soccer tonight and didn’t get injured! 90 minutes of activity means day 12 is done.
Not much more to say. Looks like its a walk to the park or back on the cycle tomorrow. Who knows, maybe both?!
