Im in week two of physio, first week he had me doing one legged step downs and various other exercises with no running.

These proved too painful and knee pain got worse espically on the stairs and stuff. I think I overdid the exercises tbh I just totally hammered them and got dedicated and did them 3 times a day. Knee went worse.

Second week, I have been wound back to simple two legged squats and clams with lots of stretching. Pain gone and I can almost touch my toes for the first time in my life.

He has said I can lightly spin on a bike so may build up the cycling.

Back to him tommorow, surley I dont need to see him every week. Its gonna cost me a fortune.

Then again I have took that attitude before - cancelled physio and this thing has stuck around.

Go with it son, pay the price or pay the price

Am I missing running, for the first time no. I never really got my fitness back for the big stuff last year and bumbled through some small stuff. So I'm happy to take a break and get this thing right.
