7/9- skip – medical reasons
Hi, my doctor says I have a torn meniscus, my knee & not to exercise but I can have occupational therapy until I decide to have surgery.
That doesn't make much sense to me.
Some days it hurts to walk & other days I feel normal unless I bend it.
Other than walking, do you have any 'gentle exercise' ideas that any of you have done?
miniDoodles: Gentle exercises for healing legs: chair dancing, some yoga and most stretches, upper body strength-training, Good luck with your upcoming medical stuff!
MiniDoodles - I’d say gentle yoga avoiding anything that puts pressure on your knee or would stretch your knee a lot. Perhaps a yoga DVD?

My target's for July are: 1) Do knee strengthening exercises that i got from physio, at least 5 days out of 7
2) Do at least 2x cardio sessions per week in first two weeks of July, and 3x per week in second two weeks of July
3) Start regular push-ups/core exercises
.
July 1st: Bike ride, physio exercises, 2x dog walk July 2nd: Physio exercises, 2x dog walk July 3rd: Pilates beginner class! Physio exercises, 2x dog walk July 4th: Physio exercises July 5th: Bush trek 1hr, physio exercises, 2x dog walk July 6th: 2x Dog, July 7th: 1x Dog, physio exercises
WEEK 1: Physio done, cardio done, regular core not done....
……………………………………….. July 8th: 1x Dog, physio exercises July 9th: 2x Dog
Basically I haven't been doing anything proactive the last few days, which is naughty! It was super windy this weekend, so bike riding didn't really appeal. But that's no excuse. And I never really got in to my core strength ambitions last week, but tonight another Pilates session is scheduled, so hopefully nothing will distract me from that at least....
