PT regime

Schedule for my PT protocol for next few weeks.  Will include more strength exercises after this period.

Some things I can do from home and some things I will start at gym next weekend (end of week 7/ beginning week 8).

Week 7:

Leg

- heel raises/ dorsiflex toe  - 3x2x20 

- ham sets - start with isometeric, then ham bridges - elevate to straight - 3x2x15 (hold 5 sec)

- single leg full weight balance for 5x30 sec.  Progress to uneven surface (cushion)

- shallow double leg squats (30º) 3x2x20

- double leg bridges 3x2x20

- reverse lunge static hold 45º 10sec+ hold  3x10 (3x week)

Upper body / core 

- bicycle crunches 4 - 5 x 50

- pull ups - 1x18, 1x 10

- pushups 1x25

Week 7-8 - additional exercises

- zero resistance stationary bike

- hip adductor and abductor machine

- glute and hip flexor machine

------------------

Aqua running, hill walking, and first resistance strength exercises not until May.  Nothing like repeated deep squat, seated leg extension, ham curl type exercise - needs to be avoided for 4 months or until June.
