Good morning. I am home recovering from knee replacement surgery done on Sept. 10 - just 6 days ago and I am thriving. I went under the knife 8 months after the "other" knee was done and with about 7 months of serious swimming - between 120 and 150 minutes a week - and it made a huge difference. I can do the quads exercise with less pain, I can walk without crutches or a cane, and I take painkillers less frequently than the first time and less frequently than suggested.
We never know when we may need a surgical procedure or face a medical problem. How healthy and in shape you are will help or make recovery more difficult.
Coaching challenge: Make a list of what you know you "should" do to be healthier, but don't do. Maybe it's about nutrition, or exercise or sleep. Then choose one area to improve this month.
