Jump Training!

Now I begin jump training, where I begin to train my body to jump and land properly, so when I do begin doing sport activities again my body's muscle memory will be used to doing things the right way. It also gets the body used to jumping again. Apparently you need to do an activity 1,000 times before your body will re-learn something correctly! The jump training is 6 weeks long, and I will begin that next week. It's a pretty tough set of exercises, but now it's both an aerobic sort of workout and also a strength training. Gonna help me get whipped into shape for sure!

4 Months!

I'm at 4 months since the surgery today! Very happy about that! Though I will have to admit that my knee is a little stiff. Probably from the running I did the other day. But overall feeling good. Biking has been my saving grace since I can't really do running all that much. And Saturday and Sunday I do the Tour de Cure where I will be biking 80 miles each day! That will be a good test of my knee! We'll see how I fare. I'll post here how things go!
