and it felt GREAT!!!!!!!!!!! Well atleast while I was there it did http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif Im sore now but I think its a "normal" soreness rather than a " I shouldnt have done that" soreness.

I did the Eliptical machine for a 1/2 hr and then did my upper body and abs. After I was done with the weights I got on the treadmill and walked at a speed of 4.5 and incline of 6 for another 1/2 hr. I was pretty depressed with how I felt. I was really tired when I walked out of there.

Im just happy to be back and cant wait to be myself again http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Congrats!!

But isn't it a little Soon? Didn't you just re-injure your Leg?

Don't rush things Wifey http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif But I'm glad it felt good

Well I did fall down the stairs last Thursday. MRI revealed no new injury just some swelling which I have been taking 700mg of Celebrex for (1-500mg horse tablet in the morning) and (1-200mg "regular" tablet at night)

I have been working on movement of my leg which is pretty rough, but getting better. I know its to soon but I need to do it or Ill go NUTS http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/bash.gif I worked my ASS off to get where I am and cant allow another day go by without the feeling I get from the gym.

Let me see if I cant get pics of my legs (the difference in size) this way you will be able to understand my aggravation http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Just be careful http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Stay away from anything with Impact (like the treadmill) hit the Elipitical Machine and Bike. If your going to go in anyways :p you might as well go with Low Risk things for your Knees http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Also When you (and your knee!) feel up to it, Leg Extensions, and Ham Curls are great for strengthening the Supporting Muscles for your knee!!

Here is a pic of my leg as of today, and I know its sloppy and I know my knee looks fat so no need to comment http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif I need to get it back to match my right but how do I do that without bulking my right up more http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

http://www.gixxer.com/uploads/Dsc00013.jpg

A start would be to cut out the Bud Lights.

Uhmm Which one am I suppose to be lookin at http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif


Both legs look pretty close to the same size in that pic. Are you trying to Gain Muscle on one, or loose Size on one leg??


Ohh Btw nice Legs http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/yumyum.gif http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

There is a BIG difference, maybe its not clear in the pics. I want to gain my muscle back in the left. My right looks like a sloppy mess, while my left is nice and tone.

Ha - Ha...
Is it odd that there is something really attractive abut a girl that has he pants around her ankles? Even if there is nothing to see?

Anyway - When you are cleared to do weights, I suggest you do each leg individually for the first while.

I didnt even catch that http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/bitchslap.gif I mean I knew I dopped em' but didnt think twice about it! Now ya'll can say Wifey dropped her pants for ya http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif

Ohhh, wifey. . . you've got GREAT legs http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/yumyum.gif You just be careful and take it easy on that knee http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif Slow & steady is the best bet on this stuff. I had foot surgery a year ago. . .I was on crutches for about 2 wks. My leg was so weak I could barely get on my horse http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Well Doing weights for your Legs, like Extensions and Ham Curls should help Tone you back up. When doing Leg Extensions look for a machine that lets you work out each one Seperately, Or do one leg at a time, but keep the weight the same, then you shouldn't Bulk up 1 more than the other, just keep working each leg with the same weight until they catch up to each other. Stay away from the Treadmill, and Use the Bike, it can really Pump your legs too, After a 30-40 min Ride on the bike my legs are burning quite good.

If your gonna get back at it, then just take it light to start, and feel the knee out, and stay away from Impact stuff. I use to Run all the time for cardio too, and alot on the streets, and since last summer and Blowing it again, I had to start doing other stuff. You can still work the legs and Heart, and get a good sweat while being easy on the knees http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Umm,why do I find that pic very "interesting" http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gifanyway...
Didn't the Dr. prescribe any sort of P.T. for you Danni?I would think he would at least want a therapist to work with you a little bit.

Like PHISH said,and I'm sure the P.T. would also;just train the injured knee by itself for a few weeks.Let the good leg rest and play catch up to the bad one.You'll be back to normal in 6 weeks no doubt http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

ok http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

If you want your full range of motion back, you better start going. I've heard stories of people that didn't go and don't even have 50% range of motion. I think after my ACL I have about 97% or something like range of motion back.

Wifey, someone has to say it so I guess it will be me. Did one of your kids paint the door with the mirror on it? http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif That looks like something one of mine would do. Good luck with your recovery I am 27 and have already had a disk removed in my back, shattered both knees in a head-on motorcycle wreck, and I was supposed to have shoulder surgery last August, so I know how you feel. Get well soon. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
