The last few visits of physical therapy are near. They&#8217;re working with me now on post p.t. workouts. Specifically, how I can avoid damaging my knee while strengthening my legs. Pretty much common sense. No deep squats, no torquing the knee, no exercises that weaken the back in anyway. Core work.<\/p>\n<p>I felt silly asking about this today, but I did. How do I build back my cardio? I asked because I&#8217;d begun to get back to it, then pushed myself too fast and began to resist doing it at all. Slowly. That&#8217;s the ticket. First, 3 days a week. Then, either add a day at the same pace or increase by 10\/20%. Oh. I was going for six days a week and kicking the time up five minutes at a whack. No wonder I was resisting.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, the knee is great. Hardly any pain. I often forget now that I had the work done. Well, often might be a stretch, but I do have times when I forget. And that&#8217;s a good thing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Winter \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Cold Moon A knee note.
