Out of nowhere, the fact that I have this blog recently came to my mind. I loged on, read the previous posts, and laughed. Don't know if it's considered healthy to do that at your own writing, but who said I was healthy? Anyway, it was more or less three months since I last wrote and at that time I'd just started to do some floorball training sessions after more than five months of rehabilitation only. If I'm not mistaken, I took part in five sessions before the summer break and from what I remember, the knee actually felt pretty good. However, a knee that feels
pretty good is not sufficiently useable and therefore, I've been continuing my rehab training over the summer, both with my team and by my self. My physio therapist had seven (!!!) weeks off, thus no one has really been there to push me but my coach. Now I'll make a list of what I've focused on in my training during the last couple of months:
- Even more muscle building in my right leg, especially the thigh- both hamstring and vastus medialis.
- A lot of core training as that's what my physio says is the most important for the future. All stability to the knee comes from the core and since we're going to play in a lot tougher division this year, that's going to be needed.
- Trying to get the-stamina-that-I've-probably-never-had-back by jogging with the team every week. If it gave any result? Not what I've noticed this far.
- All-round fitness training with the team every week.
And what is the outcome of this like? Excellent I must say! I've participated in all of the floorball sessions since we started a couple of weeks ago and haven't had any trouble what so ever with my knee. Tomorrow it's time for the real comeback as we're playing the district championship. 237 days since I last played a real game. That's insane.
