OK I have made the measurement of 120 for the past three visits at PT. I am 13 weeks post op so this is a slow process for me. They have increased weight on machines and I can do it but today I feel like a strain in back of knee prior to measurement and I think that made me struggle to get to 120. I desperately want to go a bit higher than 120 could the increase in weight have caused tightness in leg? Otherwise, on PT I want to go lighter on weight and get measurement and on non PT days add a little more weight to strengthen. Any ideas? PT said bike still best thing for ROM so keep that up.
Thanks
