As suggested to make it easyier for people catch up I've started a new part.
Well yesterday for the first time since august 2010 I skipped! I asked Mr Treacy if this would be ok at our last meeting in may and he said that it would be fine but just to er on the side of caution I waited another month

. My hip felt fine with the skipping but it did however show up some muscle weakess. I could feel muscles that were obviously still not 100% so I now know the I still have some soft tissues to heal and rehab so I'm doing more rehab exercises!

Well Danny, let me welcome you to the second half of your hippy life

Cool that you skipped, somehow that feeling of leaving the ground for a second was scary for me the first time I tried it. Now I hop and jump too

I was suprised that the hip felt fine i was only the muscles and soft tissues that twinged. I was looking at my xrays again last night and the cup certainly isn't going anywhere!
I've been trying to introduce rowing more in the gym too

Did you whistle while you skipped?

I was a little nervous, also when I made my first jump. The legs certainly don't have the bounce, but I started doing some side to side jumping/running, a bit like dry land training for downhill ski racing and after a few days of that I started to feel more bouncy. Great feeling.

Good job.

Hay tin thanks. Yeah there's deffo no bounce like there used to be but I'm sure that will come! I'll do some more skipping in a few weeks(still very cautious about impact). I really need to get back in the pool i think.

Well 33 weeks today! I must say I'm feeling pretty good at the moment. I've been doing some more strengthening work in the gym and it seems to be paying off. However I have noticed clunking again but I'm confident this is down to the extra activity. Ive been doing very light but deep squats and deadlifts making sure I really contract my quads and glutes as i do them. They seem to be working so I'll carry on!

Extra activity and maybe dehydration. Make sure you're hydrating before your workout, during it is too late. Found that one out the hard way a while ago - nearly passed out during one of my TKD workouts, tunnel vision, weakness, the usual stuff.

Dannywayoflife · « **Reply #9 on:** June 28, 2012, 01:47:29 PM »

Its defiantly not hydration issues! I'm doing around 3+ litres a day. I'm peeing like a race horse! I'm pretty sure it's just new movements for some of the damaged structures and scar tissue etc. There's no pain with it and it's not constant so I'm not worried about it.

Tin Soldier · « **Reply #10 on:** June 28, 2012, 03:43:36 PM »

I noticed the clunk increase a little around the 4 month or so timeframe then and then it went away a little more after I got into more of a steady exercise routine. I still have it when I move a certain way. I probably could do more hip-specific exercises to strengthen the muscles.

3 + litres of beer a day does not count Danny

Dannywayoflife · « **Reply #12 on:** June 28, 2012, 04:13:07 PM »

Ha I wish anna! I've nit had any beer since my last big night out in York in march! Was a little messy!

But worth it, Danny!

Dannywayoflife · « **Reply #14 on:** June 30, 2012, 12:22:54 PM »

I did what i think is my toughest gym session thus far today. I did 90+mins of cv (bike and xtrainer) and then did some shadow boxing and bag work. Then i did some light weights, Squats and dead lifts and some shoulder stuff. Then a 10 min cool down on the bike to finish. The hip felt fine!

Anna · « **Reply #15 on:** June 30, 2012, 12:59:11 PM »

YIPPEEE! Well done you

Dannywayoflife · « **Reply #16 on:** June 30, 2012, 01:17:32 PM »

Thanks hun! Hope that it continues to get better!

Anna · « **Reply #17 on:** June 30, 2012, 01:28:12 PM »

I will have to see if I can get you a free pass for my gym next week. We can run some post op / pre op tests. I think I will lose in the running and rowing and skipping and strength categories (in fact pretty much everything) but will leave you standing on the cycling!

Dannywayoflife · « **Reply #18 on:** June 30, 2012, 01:37:13 PM »

Ha that sounds like fun! Ill have to leave the running test out tho as im not going to atempt that till next year(being super cautious!)

Anna · « **Reply #19 on:** June 30, 2012, 08:51:18 PM »

Lol, thats ok. I will let you off with the running. .. especially seen as though I can barely walk let alone run. Probably wouldnt be the most exciting race in history
