Todays training once again started at 6am. First I did 20 minutes on the cross trainer, initially on level 10 of 20 and then I ended up on level 20 (the most difficult level) as I got quite pumped up to the music. Following this I did one hour on the static bike in hill training mode. Today was therefore more of a strength/ interval session that a steady rate cardio session. I thought this would help to further increase the muscle strength in my legs and thus help to support my knee even more when I start running again.
After the cardio I spent a good 20 minutes stretching and doing hip stabilisation exercises. I am so far from being able to do the box splits it is incredible, but with frequent stretching maybe I can get a little bit nearer. When I used to do martial arts I could do a sidekick above my head. I would like to be able to do this again.
That's all for today folks as I need to get some sleep ready for my next training session which surprise surprise is tomorrow :))
