Today we really worked on balance . Oh gotta love the balance beam cushions.
I was able to eek it out and to it but man..I am worried about falling through the whole process.
But I did it. Its was all about balance today.
Then I had to laugh he added something new. If your balance is good then its a piece of cake. I wish I had a video cam cause it was hilarious.
You take this ball..if you look at its light. But you lift it and its not. Not sure how much it weights but I have to stand on my bad foot and throw this ball at the center of this tramp and it comes back at ya kinda fast. You kinda gotta do it to get the feel of it . First its a good foot on the toes and you work up to one foot. I had to laugh cause it was funny at first. But I got the job done.
Then on to the recumbent stepper. I would love to have one of these at home its one thing thats really help strengthen the ligaments and tendon process. But they are not cheap..but well worth it.
Then the kicker of the day is a different form of stepper standing. Thats when I realized I have a ways to go. I only eeked out 30 of the 50 he wanted. It was painful however he said do not push past the pain level of 4. Not a good thing to do so on this machine.
Then we went on working on something we don’t think about when we injure a foot and thats limping.
Man am I. So its retraining you body and your mind to not do it. Which is a really interesting concept.
So I had to learn this one excercise to do at home as well and thats almost a march with
the good foot and balancing with the good foot. Dam that wasn’t easy. I had to laugh cause now if they see me limping they are saying…
No limping! Which is so aggrivating but for my own good…If I want to get up and be walking faster.
Then it was on to the treadmill. He is a monster after all of that he wanted 7 minutes on the treadmill and no limping. He is a hawkeye to.
But I did okay and made it through.
Then on to the the massage ultra sound. That is to stimulate healing of the ligaments and tendons. Which really helps.
The pain is not as intense but still there so we are working to a better point on that as well.
Its not how much you do its how you do it.
So today was a successful day.
I feel good about what was achomplished.
So we will see how it goes and keep on working at it.
Oh and the Stepper is a great place to do your morning meditations and prayers.
With that in mind I know the power of God and he will see me though to a better place.
Inch By Inch It’s a Cinch.
* He brought me to it. He will bring me through it.*
Have a great day Everyone. Do something special to day.
Always,Hope
