MG rehab log

I'm back Bags and I fell on my knees and face 2 days ago.
I heard from a friend of mine that his balance hasn't been the same since his knee replacement.
Right knee is still stiff so I skipped work but had to find a way to loosen it up a bit. I did 60 minutes recumbent bike and it helped a bit.

I agree with him. I found my balance was off until I had the second knee done. It took a bit of getting used to, but now I'm OK for an old fart.
Did you hurt yourself when you fell?
 

I keep the pace moderate on the bike and it really helps.

I fell on both knees, the elbows and the face. It was as if I had been hit by a car. It could have been worse though.
 
That's not good MG!
