Had a consultation with Brodie, an Aussie PHT specialist. He had some good advice regarding my rehab protocol. He seemed to think I should feel free to mix in some level 2 and 3 rehab exercises in my protocol very soon. I've just done two days of long lever bridges, full body weight, using a hanging sling around my heel. The most important thing I learned is that rehab is not a time schedule, it's a load tolerance schedule. It's normal to feel a tad sore after some rehab the same day, but not the next day. If it's sore the next day, probably too much. In that regard, I'm good so far. Odd at how things like long lever bridges are challenging for my injury but squats and kettlebell swings are not. Single leg RDLs with a kettle bell is challenging, especially with planted leg straight. Much easier with a slight flex. Anyway, need to mix it up a bit next time and do some level 2 and 3.
Certainly could run now if I wanted, but won't for a while. Patience. However, was thinking I might try a few stair runs on Thurs. Not 20 like last time, but just several as a test.
Out hiking and biking....
