The knee
It has been 5 days since I injured my knee in Monday's squat session. I have been compliant with the treatment and exercises required to heal and prevent further injury. I had 2 days off training this week - lucky timing with my trip to Sydney - although the flights didn't do me any favours. I have done a couple of upper body training sessions, and a small amount of bike, rower and cross trainer. Today it feels better than it has all week, so it is healing. However today I test how it is at with heavy deadlifts and light squats.
I will take more time in my pre work out warm up to make sure I have done all the correct activation exercises as I want all the surrounding muscles and joints doing the work they are suppose to to ease the load. I have downed a huge bowl of oats for breaky so I am well feed to heal and work out.
Fingers crossed
Lisa
