Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Re: Outpatient Hip Replacement...
Well, today turned out to be one of those, "Not so fast, cowboy!" kind of days. Was all charged up to hit the streets again and extend the walk, but got a few minutes into it and everything just felt tight and sore and, well, overdone.
Gotta know your own body, so I came inside and took a nap.
Tomorrow is another day!

I made up for ya Evan I did 25 miles on the bike then went for a 2 mile walk. Even got a movie in Quick Gun. Pretty good movie. I bet RR probably has seen that one

Re: Outpatient Hip Replacement...
Glad you are up and about. You will have better days and some just so so. You will know what you can do because if you over do, the next day will be so so. Each day should be an improvement and soon you will be much better than you have been for quite a while and wondering why you did not do this earlier. Happy for you.

Have to push to the limits to know where they are.

Re: Outpatient Hip Replacement...
One of the repetitive pieces of advice you all have given me is to not skimp on the Rehab/PT stuff, and I"ve carried that along with me through all this so far. The Therapist is great, very intuitive and excellent at reading what I'm up for, when to push and when to let me coast.
I get the sense that next week will see the beginnings of "getting rid of the cane" work, which is fine, as it's starting to become a device that, instead of keeping me from falling down, is more useful just in terms of a safety net. I'm working on trying to make my (surgery-side) foot hit the floor before the tip of the cane does.
That said, I can't get rid of the picture of a new-born colt, just standing and walking, trying to figure out how it all works, taking mis-steps, wobbling about. When I try to take unassisted steps, I feel like a two-legged colt!
Anyway, I'm on about 6 core exercises right now, 3 laying down, 3 standing. Working through 3 sets of each, 15 reps per set, at least twice per day this weekend. We'll see what she has in store on Monday.

Re: Outpatient Hip Replacement...
Great to hear Evan. You are progressing quickly!
Keep up the good work.
Speaking of ' Colts ', might be a good reward to yourself in the near future.
