I think you're finding out what the toughest part of the recuperation is: patience.
If you look around at the people who are or have been in this site, you'll see marathoners, triathlon athletes, sprinters, mountain climbers, martial artists (Danny and I fit in there), water and fire rescue, horse racers, and so on.
The one thing we all seem to have in common is a lack of patience and the ability to push through pain. That is the thing you have to fight off in this recovery, since it is not going to help and could definitely be harmful.
You don't want to cause a revision by pushing too early.
You have two types of healing going on here: healing your muscles, which although it takes time and comes sooner, is not the most important early on.
The important one is healing your bones. This is a structural thing and does not respond to pushing through pain. If you feel pain, you need to back down. The first six months I was told by my doctor to let the bone heal.
It seems like forever, but it passes - then you can work on the muscular return. I couldn't go back to contact, punching bag work until a year had passed. Once I went back though, my hips were sound and I could go full speed.
Let your bones heal. As athletes, we're used to pushing through muscular pain - early on this is not what you're dealing with. Let your bones heal around the implant, get strong without shocking them loose and you'll be fine for the long run.
