September 13th – Pre Op Rehab

I started pre op rehab and continued for the 3 weeks as I was told by my team mate (who is also a physio) that getting the quad strong was a key for rehab post the operation. I did a combination of light bike riding (10-15 mins at a time) & light squats (built up to 12.5 kgs on each side) but mainly bike riding along with bridges. Actually I did lots of single leg bridges to strengthen my quads and hamstrings thanks to Ross’ advice again. I did it every day up to 2 days before the operation. For squats I did them on Wed 22^nd September and Monday 27^th September only.
