Sept 12 Exercise Report - What are you doing today?
I guess I was feeling guilty about missing my weight workout last night as I woke up at 4:45 AM and could not get back to sleep. So, I got up and dragged myself to the Y and did 45 minutes of weights and 2 miles on the treadmill. This is good because I have dinner plans with my wife tonight that would have made going to the Y tonight impossible. If we get home early enough, I may still go for another walk as I have a pretty busy day tomorrow. My grandson has baseball practice in the morning and I have family coming for dinner tomorrow night and they want some of my award winning bbq.
12 days into the month and I have already walked 31 miles so my goal of averaging 2 miles per day is well above schedule.
Your surgeon probably prescribed exercise as part of your plan so get out there and take your medicine!

I got up at 5 to go to the YMCA. Very busy evening today so I knew I'd have to fit in my exercise early. I've been having some pain in my knee so I'm careful not to aggravate it. I did about 20 minutes at 2.5 on the treadmill, which is just not doing anything for me exercise-wise and my knee started to bother me so I stopped. Recumbent bike didn't seem to bother it at all so I did 30 minutes and actually worked up a sweat.
I see my doctor on monday and will talk to them about knee pain.
You might try the elliptical. I found it easier on my knees than a treadmill.

I second the elliptical suggestion!
