Sat 21st

Knee still feels off, lateral side also hurts (feels like a sharp pain if I internally rotate?) I decided to do some strength work to try and 're-calibrate' the knee...

A. Barbell Split Squat 5 x 10/8 50kg
B. GHR 4 x 10
C. Row 5k - 20'30.3

Day 6. After lots of split squats and glute ham raises.... #row #aware #fundraiser #fundraising #sdscgym

Fri 20th

Yoga AM - before the class started I was doing some stretches and did a glute stretch on my left side and strained / twisted / hurt my knee! I knew instantly I should have come out of the stretch but didn't (idiot!).

I recall straining my knee a bit doing the cross legged seated position with my left leg on the inside - this just doesn't agree with my knee at all (other side it ok) so just don't do it!!

I rowed in the evening, knee was ok - nothing worse going on. Right patella tendon does feel inflamed though!

SDSC - 5k row 20'37.2

Not surprisingly the knee is a little off today (poor yoga technique!!) so I felt a little up and down on this. Changed the damper setting to 5 - actually felt less consistent than the readings say (although I'm sure a proficient rower would say this is far from consistent). Day 5 in the bag 👍🏻 #aware #fundraising #fundraiser #row #rowing #erg #concept2 #fridaynightfun #sdscgym
