Putting the knee right

I went to see a different phyzz today. She examined my knee thoroughly and asked lots of questions.

There is nothing seriously wrong - no meniscus problems. Probably the medial ligament causing problems something like this.

She has advised me to take a couple of weeks off running to try and normalise the strength in the leg. So lots of exercises - half squats, leg press, balancing on the bosu together with swimming and cycling - but don't get any funny ideas.

I really want to get this right and need to focus on doing these exercises for the next few weeks while I have time.

    "balancing on the bosu together with swimming and cycling" I can see a use for the bosu when swimming - I imagine it might work as a float, but where does it go on a bike?

    Listen to what phyzz says, do what she says, don't worry and you'll be fine xx
