So, what did I do to be this satified? Well, first I asked my physio therapist to give me som exercises this morning and then I did them (not joking, it's true):
- Started off by walking in a stair-machine. Interwalls on level 12 with 77 steps/minute for ten minutes. Good warm up to get the circulation in the knee going and also to work that abscent endurance.
- "The-girl-machine", first pressing the thighs outwards and then inwards. Working outer and inner thighs. 40 kg when doing it outwards and 25 kg inwards. 10x3.
- Leg curl (contraction of knee, working the hamstring), 5 kg when doing it with one leg. 12x3.
- Leg extension (working the quads), 10 kg when doing it with one leg. 12x3.
- Leg press (working the core, thighs, knees and calves). 70 kg for two legs and 30 kg for one. 12x3.
- Lifting of pelvis with feet on pilates ball, body from 140 to 180 degrees. To get stability from the core and increase stability in thighs and knees. 12x3.
- Same as above but now rolling the ball beneath the body. 12x3.
- Squattings with medicine ball between knees. Until I got tired of it.
THIS FEELS FREAKIN' AWESOME!
