Week 3_Day 4_ Sunday 13 th June




This morning i went to gym.
wow..can i say it? ...\IT WAS GREAT TO BE BACK IN THE GYM.

I'm off the crutches from today. I have decided.

also the brace catches me across the biggest scar (on the front of the tibia) , so i am wearing it less nd less.

What i did at gym:
* Exercise bike: 15mins ( on lowest setting, no resistance, just the flowing motion)
* Leg raises and hamstring curls ( free weight no resistance)
* Upper body: Pecs : 3 sets of 20 reps on 7.5kg
Verticle rowing machine - (biceps,deltoids,rhomboids) 22.5 kg at _3 sets of 10 reps_
Stomach crunches: 5 sets of 20 on 25kg (ab machine)

My scars hurt quite abit today. There is alot of scar tissue, so when the skin stretches (as in walking and exercise) it "pulls"tremendously.
so i bought Bio-Oil and am now rubbing the scars - as mucg as pain and dicomfort allows. To loosen the scar tissue beneath the skin.

I drove to church(automatic) this evening, and i didnt wear brace or use crutches, i did howere take one with me,
why? because the brace's front strapping is right across the biggest scar below the knee on the Tibia....= Sore!

Had a good day.
