Today, I resolved to get back into a workout regimen. So today at lunch I did the following:
- Single leg squat (a.k.a., one leg lunge) 4 sets of 10 each.
- Theraband hamstring curls, 3x10.
- Dumbell squats, 4x10.
- Romanian dead lifts, 4x10. I realize now I've been doing them wrong, fortunately without lifting too much weight.
Because my autograft was taken from my left hamstring, it's basically shot. I'd guess I have about half the strength of the right leg. Otherwise, the knee is feeling great, and invariably, even if I feel some clicking or other noise during my workout, the knee tends to stabilize and start feeling even better during and after the workout.
Coming down the stairs, my legs were a little shaky so I know I got a good workout, but realized I have a long way to go, a long way. All I can do is work the lower body while doing PT on my shoulder, and hopefully start being able to strengthen the shoulder soon. Range of motion is already pretty good, but it's very weak.
