First Post-Surgery Trip to the Gym
I finally got my rear in gear and made it to the gym today. I was nervous that I would knock into someone or something or otherwise hurt my legs, but luckily, I was accident free. I did a mostly typical chest and triceps workout, though wasn't able to do dips. Stretching was more difficult since the majority focuses on my legs. Finally I made it to the stationary bike. I did the full 20 minutes the doctor allowed without any trouble. Tomorrow will be a better indication of how my body actually responds.
