Deja Vu minus the watermelon sour patches. SI joint is JACKED with a capital JACKED!

AM: Hip drill.

PM: Royal SI beating at PT. Low back/SI joint has been getting progressively more painful since ditching the crutches and is essentially stuck. My surgeon said that FAI surgery can sometimes fix a wonky SI joint and oh how I hope that is the case for me! Just sucks because the hip feels fine compared to the low back! 

Lunging hip flexor stretch, 1/2 kneeling sidebending stretch, prayer stretch, CLAM SHELLS, and L-sprine rolly things added to PT routine already consisting of hip circles, scissors, and splits with band, baby bridges now with band, hip abductor, adductor and leg lifts, and glute sets. I need to make a chart!

Happy 2014! Can you believe it?

I have about 100 resolutions, but the two I would like to share are 1) to write more and be less shy about sharing and 2) use a reusable coffee mug at all times, no more paper cups.

Granted 2013 was sandwiched on both sides with hip surgeries and crap, the meat (and by meat on mean cheese) was pretty good. Considering I was on crutches for OVER 3 MONTHS of 2013, I think I did alright :)

Just a few of my 2013 highlights...

AM: Morning hip.

PM: Evening hip plus 30 minutes bike and 10 minutes arm bike.

That's like 2 plus hours of exercise without breaking a sweat!

7 weeks down, 5 more to go! Hip is feeling fab, SI is feeling bad.

I just looked back on my posts and well I am having way less pain at this point than my previous 2 surgeries and I am walking a whole week earlier than last time. I have none of the horrible hip flexor cramping pain I remember from the other surgeries, only tightness which I know will resolve once I am allowed to stretch more agressively. I have been holding off on saying this... but the pre-surgical pain I had in the front of my hip is GONE. Let's hope it stays that way!!!

AM: Lots of passive range of motion and SI beating at PT then clamshells, ADULT bridges with band, and SQUATS like real SQUATS and they have never felt so goooood! My hips feel even and normal and weird!

PM: 25 minutes bike and evening PT. Why do people lifting weights at the gym make me feel so uncomfortable?

AM: Morning hip.

PM: Evening hip and 30 minutes stationary bike (2 minutes on Level 6 - wowza!) and 10 minutes arm bike (not getting any easier).

Then some crazy idea making...
