Question:

What are some exercises I can do to get back in shape?

I had arthroscopic knee surgery april of this year. They took out A LOT of scar tissue, and did a lateral release. What are some ways I can get in shape, that aren't to weight bering on my knee?


Answers:

Did you have physical therapy after your surgery? That would be the first step to getting back into shape b/c if you dont strengthen the muscles properly and equally in your leg then other activities (like running, swimming, etc) could become painful or difficult. I agree that doing exercise in the pool would take the stress off of your knee but you should be 100% in 3-4 months post-op if you rehab went well. Then you should be able to do anything you want without fear of putting too much stress on the knee.
