OK heres the deal.
I tore my acl playing soccer. so now i'm on crutches and i cant really put any pressure on my knee. But my question is how can i work out? Cuz i have a lot of down time, and i went from playing tennis and soccer to now nothing. so i dont know what to do. any ideas that doesnt have much to do with my knee?
I was on crutches and I felt like a couch patato, so i know how youo feel. What you can do is any arm exersize, such as bench presses, lifting weights etc, as it gets better and you can put some pressure on it (i know it wil take a while) you could use a stationary bike, that will get your entire body moving, bu it will also work your kneee out pretty well, just dont start until you are told that you can at least start walking on it, if not later, u want to be careful coming back from an injusry like that, but i would definately say a stationary (or maybe even a regular, i used a stationary) bike would be good, but just make sure that it is ok with the doctor first, that that amount of pressure gets put on it
(Rating: 5) thanks for the ideas.
