#hipoperation

Monday motivation at its finest... 😂 Doing squats on a @bosu_fitness ball... 🙄 Improves your balance they say.. Strengthens your core they say.. Good for your glutes and hip recovery they say.. Seriously.. 🖕🏻 I'm so badly unbalanced, it's actually comical. My entire centre of gravity is that off centred it's on another planet. My stomach muscles ache already from trying to stay put. ..and I can't properly squat as it pinches on my hip joint. #yougotthis #suckitupprincess #mondaymotivation #recovetingtriathlete #squats #fatnotfit #hipoperation #Physiotherapy #recovery #slowandsteady https://www.instagram.com/p/BqGHEEjnOsE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1c1ihvxdzryma

My Christmas wish is to get the "All clear" to start running again... Let's hope that Christmas comes early today!! #pyshiotherapy #hipoperation #hiprecovery #hiparthoscopy #triathleteinrecovery #slowandsteady #fingerscrossed #plantbasedtriathlete #recovetingtriathlete #backtobasics (at Edgware Community Hospital) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrSRUTtHT1x/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=fkybk90ekcgt

Today was quite possibly the Mondayest Wednesday in a long while.. After a long day of tolerating people in general, my endo being a bitch, my hip joint smarting a little as it's getting colder.. I decided the gym was going to be my only coping mechanism.. So a 2000m Row, an hour of core / stretch work with a bit of yoga added to the end an a 30 min swim later, I found happiness (& sweatiness) The gym was relatively quiet too and I had the pool all to myself.. I'm taking that as a Wednesday win. #wednesdayworkout #wednesdaywin #hipoperation #recoveringtriathlete #gymnotgin #fitnotfat #motivation #focus #yougotthis #dedication #humpdayhappiness https://www.instagram.com/p/BqLQ3HeHhhc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=m0j4ijo4dvh0

How awesome is this? Today I learnt just how screwed up my right hip was.. It's pretty screwed. Three anchors on my labrum as it got caught in my hip joint and had completely torn..!! Excessive shaving of my pelvic bone and a load of muscle that had just worn away... I now feel that I probably shouldn't have been so tough on myself or my recovery. The human body is a wonderful thing and I need to be appreciative of mine a little more.... #hipoperation #hiparthoscopy #hiprecobery #labrum #labraltear #triathleteinrecovery #appreciationformybody #surgery https://www.instagram.com/p/BqIXfjBH6uP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d9co5pnpvprn

Gym and swim! Happiness right there. Tonight was just a 5km row and a 1km swim (Still arms only) Its not the fastest, but I'm feeling stronger than my last session, so I'll take that. 💪🏻 #hipoperation #recoveringtriathlete #recoveryishard #slowandsteady #gymandswim #countryclub #sweatymess #happiness (at Abshot Country Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bppk13anPph/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=k47lx1jrzfb3

Physio exercises with the Swiss ball.. That's one way to start the day... #Physiotherapy #hipoperation #hipartharoscopy #recoveryishard #recoverytime #slowandsteady #triathleteinrecovery #procompressionsocks #procompression #onrunning #runningonclouds #physio #workoutwednesday https://www.instagram.com/p/BpThApqHHcj/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8niluy1pphq4

So it's been a while since I went swimming at 6:30am.. (Almost three entire months to be exact..) The verdict: Waking up at 5:30am is not fun. Its cold out. It's dark out. Swimming with a pull buoy for your entire session is exhausting. I knew I had zero upper body strength, but seriously.. I have actual forgotten how to use my @Garmin 935xt I need to swim more. #hipoperation #recoverytime #backtoit #triathletelife #swimbikerun #hipartharoscopy #swimming #yougotthis #suckitupprincess #slowandsteady #backtobasics #triathlontraining #motivation #determination #focus https://www.instagram.com/p/BpFAXLgHilC/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=6hilgj8ubi0p
