Note
FASIC with Pete Mitchell
Nothing obviously wrong with the knee, lots of weakness and imbalance in pretty much everything in the left leg. Pete went down every muscle and demonstrated how the left version is significantly weaker than the right. Assigned the knee problem to stresses ultimately derived from this total instability, plus occasional trauma from falls, which makes sense.
The gastroc is hopeless, though he claimed there is a tiny bit still functioning near the gastroc head.
Plan is to build strength in the other left leg muscles to restore equality. Limp-running and cycling wont help.
Various strengthening exercises which can be done without falling over: the illustrations make it clear this is granny-rehab rather than sports injury, but the numbers of reps are pretty demanding. Its all lying down, so can be done while watching telly.

Running 58:00 [3] 6.5 mi (8:55 / mi)
Craigmillar, ERI. Physio tomorrow, so took some brufen and tried a run. Noticable knee pain, but not so bad as to force a stop. Generally felt quite flat, as one might expect.

Cycling 1:00:00 [3] 20.0 mi (3:00 / mi)
In the gym at Warrender. 50 mins on the bike, also 2.5 km on the rowing machine in 5 intervals. Snow and ice outside, so not too sad.
