Physical therapy day 2.
PT really worked it today... man is it sore! Pinching is bad. Soreness is okay. Just gotta keep at it until it gets better. He says getting back to normal daily function (stairs, in and out of car, etc) without pain will be the easy part. Getting back to full crossfit WODs is going to take "some time"...
Home exercises include:
Stretches:
5 x 20s of stretching out hip while lying down on edge of bed
3 x 20s "pretzel stretch"
3 x 20s hip flexor stretch (Samson stretch without the arms above head)
Strengthening:
3 x 10 "bridges" (hip thruster things)
3 x 10 "clamps"
Been taping wrist lately (even at work) as it's been bothering me.
Today, I ate:
Breakfast at 8:30am: 2 fried eggs, 4 Tallgrass meatballs, tomato sauce, 1 americano
Lunch at 12:30pm: chicken korma with roasted butternut squash (roasted w/ garlic and cinnamon)
Snack at 4:30pm: handful of almonds, pistachios, dried cranberries, and dried cherries
Dinner at 9pm: Barbacoa (frozen, bought at Costco... kinda salty) with broccoli. Banana nut cupcake from Sweet Mandie B's (happy birthday Amy!)
Donna!
ReplyDeleteYou'll get there girl....just be patient with your body and give it the time it needs to recover. As my dad says (in his cute little indian accent) Rome was not built in a day!
