The past couple of days......

While cleaning out the basement, I stepped on a toy gun from my youngest and twisted my right knee. I can't squat or barely bend it. It is better today. The pain is right above the knee cap. So I say that I strained the patella tendon. I have been RICE'ing it. I am just glad it wasn't my surgically repaired left knee. I had that one reconstructed back in Feb. 1984, ACL and MCL tears. If there was swelling I would have gone to the ortho by now, but there has been no swelling at all. I hope it gets better soon. I miss training!

High Intensity

Strain Prevention

Warmup

PreRecruit

ex1 - 9 heart rate = 120

ex2 - 5 - heart rate = 130

ex3 - 13 - heart rate = 160

ex4 - 2 - heart rate = 130 - I am real weak on these

ex6 - 6 - heart rate = 130

Total = 38

Cool Down

I started on PreRecruit because on some of the exercises I need work. During my 6 months of Commando(recruit and grunt missions) I moved ahead when i should have stayed back on some of them. That is why I didn't tackle the commando level, I wasn't ready.  I am taking it slower this time.
