Thankful. It Starts Today......
So thankful this year for faith, family, friends, and fully recovered hips. No more nerve or joint pain in the hips. It's been a long journey from bilateral FAI, but two surgeries later, I am finally healed. So, time to get back in shape; and it starts TODAY. What better day to start than Thanksgiving? Nothing says getting fit like stuffing your face with the goodness of Thanksgiving grub. I'll be starting slow, body weight exercises for a month or so, and back to boxing. I will also be putting a heavy focus on getting mobile, especially in the hips, calves and feet. So, here's to good health, and good riddance to bad hips.
11/28
Warm Up - shadow boxing, dynamic stretches ~5 min
Chins, Squats, Shups, Lunges, Crunches, Hip Thrusts, Dips, Bis/Tris
Great article on the oh-so important glutes
Great way to stretch the adductors. By "sitting back" in the stretch, I was able to feel a nice release all the way up the adductor. Nice change of pace compared to the side lunge stretch. Will be adding these in for prehab and warm ups.
Dry Needling
So I just had my first ever dry needling session to try and relieve some nagging aches in my left hip area (15 months post op from FAI surgery). The needling in my adductor was some of the worst pain that I have ever felt. I was sweating within seconds, and even dropped an F-Bomb (or two). The twitching was so intense due to the tightness of my adductor. I knew it was tight, but I had no idea. When I felt the hard, dense strand of the adductor as it nears the pubic bone, I just assumed that was the hard tendon.....nope, that was my muscle! Hard as a rock! Reach down and feel your achilles tendon (back of foot, connects to calf); that's how hard my adductor muscle is! Damn! Anyway, here's to six weeks of pain as we get this sorted out. And Lord, please forgive me for all the horrible things I was thinking about my PT as she did her job....
