Patella Tendonitis - Recovery (15)

It's the morning after the night before and my knee feels ok. I am going to do a small bit of gym work today and make a physio appointment before my next run which will most likely be on Saturday morning.

I intend to use the Infrared massager on my knee again tonight too.

Patella Tendonitis- Recovery (12)

Well my knee was feeling weird last night and a bit odd this morning. Not painful but it just didn't feel right.

The weather was too nice to ignore. So I went out for a small run. I have spent months doing stretches and weights and with no improvement so to hell with it, i thought.

I went out to the local park and did some stretches and then ran about 3/4 of a kilometre without any pain or ill feeling. So I stopped and came on home because I don't want to push it.

I warmed down and it has been a few hours now and no ill affects...

The end may be nigh!

Patella Tendonitis - Recovery

As part my recovery (attempted recovery) from patella tendonitus I was in the gym today.

I did leg extensions (30kg for 1 leg, 50 kg for 2) and leg press with the same weights. I did some chest and arm work followed by some sit ups and stretches.

I plan to do some leg raises tonight and possibly some squats and see how i get on.
