Rowing fun at the gym.  My PT prescribed a cortisone shot for the knee. Can't wait.

Fritz you need to try high intensity interval training (HiiT) after being continually injured for 4.5 years this has really helped me build streangth in the right places and have been running so much better. Plus you seem to love the cross training thing:) I have been doing it consistently for 4-5 months 4-5 x a week. There are great resources online to find workouts.

Plus it only take 20-30 mins

Thanks Josse. I am definitely realizing that strength training and switching up the pace will definitely have to become part of my routine in the future if I want to stay healthy. Do you have a standard routine you like?

I put together circuits for the days of the week I want and cycle through those for a month and then come up with totally new ones. I base my workouts on my weaknesses and how intense my running is. I could defiantly help you put together some workout that will get your weak areas strong.

Right now my knee isn't ready for anything that would involve running, hopping or jumping. Are those activities required? My glutes, abductors and core are the areas that need the most work. Thanks again.

You get the shot yet? Or scheduled?

That's what is nice about these workouts is you can do what works for you. Let me know if you want some help putting together a workout

I was referred to Dr. Petron at the U but he is "booked" for who knows how long so instead I am seeing his resident a week from tomorrow (next Friday), which was the earliest possible appointment. I asked, "Since it's just a shot couldn't someone else do it sooner?" That question was ignored.

You might want to check another place...maybe talk to Matt. I was able to schedule an appointment for a hip injection (which is a lot harder) at Central Utah Clinic for the next day.

Good idea, thanks. Now I am seeing a sports medicine doctor at TOSH on Monday. They don't even need a referral.
