Feels completely normal

Love to hear that.

Muay Thai, I can do it, though I haven't felt the urge for the lengthy beasting sessions I used to go in for. I'm training Phil Norman's 'Ghost' system at the moment, which is likely to be the next big thing in stand-up.

I'm not really into fads like new systems. I don't think that anyone system is ever complete or really better than any other. Fashions come and go.
Glad your back to doing what you love tho!

Here I go again, after eight years one month I'm having the right one done on 15th November, by Jeremy Latham, I wouldn't let anyone else touch it.

7 weeks in on the right hip and I'm back at work. I didn't bother posting meantime as my recovery followed exactly the same sequence as last time (q.v.)

I'm walking cross-country at least an hour a day and using static bike now. No pain whatsoever, no drugs required. I still can't quite touch my toes but driving is comfortable again.

It's a pity this operation is going out of fashion, if you get a surgeon that knows what they're doing it works!

Congratulations Gary,  good to hear you're doing well.  I'm bilateral at just about 4 and 6 months and still making progress.  ROM is a larger and more challenging issue than strength but does seem to be getting there, just slower than I'd expect.  Daily exercise and practice seem to be the answer.  So damn satisfying to be able to walk, hike and just plain ambulate without the OA, limp and pain.  Life is so much better.  Keep getting stronger Gary.  Best wishes.

Congratulations Gary,
I haven't posted for a while but remember some discussions during your first HR.
Delighted it's going strong ( just like my 9 year old Adept), and that you've returned to your surgeon who has a great HR reputation in the UK.
Best wishes
Toby
