Woo Hoo! My first time on stationary bike after THR!!

Posted , 3 users are following.

I'm am thrilled! 6 1/2 weeks post-op and I asked my PT if I could try the bike. I was delighted to get on it and pedal. (I miss riding so much) I was pleasantly surprised to look down at my knees and see that they were both pointing forward. No more turning out to the side frog leg! I almost cried tears of joy!
