30 June 2010 Marked 5 weeks after my ACL Reconstruction
_I went to physio this morning, it was testing as my muscles are stiff from the gymning
We were able to get flexion in knee joint to 5 degress less than the othe leg.
_I didn't walk too much today , 2/3kms in total (podometer)
_i did 1 hour on the exercise Bike : Today I started now pushing it to my Heart Rate Maximun : I could push to 176 , then it took 2mins roughly to return to 117 ( low HOUR within zone for fat burn)
_more stretches for legs /hamstrings etc .. As I am working muscles harder they are getting more stiff &shortening.
