Knee Recovery Review

I had a followup appointment today with the surgeon (actually a Fellow who was his assistant) and he declared the knee tight and the reconstructed ACL strong. The left quad is still less than 80% of the right quad and that is one of the markers that can keep me from full activity (specifically long runs, cutting and twisting--so no serious Aikido yet). But, I should be able to close that gap in the next month or two at the most. I can do everything else now and should work on quad, hamstring and calf strength... so more squatting is definitely in the cards. Also, yoga is a definite go. The PT road may be coming to an end soon.
