Sunday nothing, not even exercises, worked on deck
Monday I drove partway to work (my usual free parking near the dog park) then rode Puppy the rest of the way, and added in some FoPa loopage to test the hill. I think I can park in FoPa instead and get the better riding there instead of doing trainer rides indoors. Goal is to build up to riding the entire commute distance, this will take time especially since there's a secondary build in two weeks when I get to wear biking shoes. Not used to being unclipped, that's probably more dangerous for me! It was cold out, upper 40's, my hands got cold but I told them to STFU and enjoy the ride :) My hip did hurt a bit after this. Also adding in a few flights of stairs at work today, start with 3x 2 floor and see how it goes. It will help that I'm not walking the 0.7 miles each way to the truck when I have the bike. Good trade off.
Tuesday Prior to Dr L appt I got in 20' elliptical and 25' swim. My goal was a 1200y swim but silly delays lost time. I couldn't find my cap and goggles, asked Anton about a lost/found or back-up to borrow, dug around in the room, then found my stuff inside my shower bag. Oops. Good swim, but my technique is sloppy. I found a website with 100 swim workouts, I need some variety so I'm using these to build sessions. Dr L appt went good, worked on back and hip as usual. Said my back is still building strength, but it also seemed to me that things aren't improving or changing and something else needs to be done.
Tuesday bonus. It's colder out but sooooooo beautiful with all the fall colors!
Wednesday PT with JulieB, then at home 30' min on the bike and 20 mins of dumb bell strength training. To the Marvel Comics Ultron movie :)
JB thought I might be able to run a fall marathon in 2018!! Race calendar time!
Dropped Puppy off at BS for a fall tune up. Puppy has needed attention since ...oh...about April when he was previously in for a tune up. That's when the RandomAssShifting started, half and double shifts at whim. And that bump in the rear tire, I'm sure it's an easy fix but it wasn't easy for me.
Thursday Low energy morning transformed into good by an hour at the gym. Longest elliptical and pool sessions yet! And 5 mins of backwards treadmill walking between them. Not really counting that into my hour. So does that mean I'll do 5' of indoor biking when I get home? Probably. Zippo to do today at work, that's been the trend all week. Not happy about it. Energy suck.
My back "pinged" in the pool today, the upper left posterior hip feeling. I think that's the first time I've felt it swimming. Started late, after the kickboard laps. Keep an eye on it. Remembered today that swimming hurt before the surgery, so another positive-- my hip doesn't hurt while swimming! But my neck...my neck not liking the alternate side breathing sets.
I pick up Puppy tonight, and in 1.5 hours I talk to my NSNG-VT!! Excited, nervous, have my notes ready. Report in tomorrow on it.
Friday, didn't get to picking up Puppy. Had PT and that was about it for the day.
Saturday elliptical and pool, but because I got a late start to the morning I didn't get a full swim in. M&D coming to visit!!
