Maybe we should do a thread on progress for a run (not my fave activity) - is there a Middle East marathon (or half) - good way to link it with your charity as well ?? Anyone else doing this? |

My exercise regime will comprise an additional 10 mins a day standing on one leg throwing a tennis ball against a wall. Horace goes skiing! :thumbup: The possible rotation and also lateral stresses are going to be very very risky with your ACL not being right... I would not do it. PS I thought my leg was better and then tore all the ligaments a second time roller skating - same lateral motion, just snapped and went down very hard and fast.... |

swimming and cycling are great for dodgy knees. Would take PS advice though about skiing---major impact on the knees there mate!!
I hear too often of so called P/T's training people without taking medical opinions and making injuries worse. |

agree, i was referring to the fact that cycling is non impact on the knees. Of course if one has dodgy knees then specialist advice should be sought.

Will update you from Salzberg A+E sf:thumbup: |
