Took a break from posting anything fitness related - had major knee surgery for the 2nd time on the same knee in April. That forced me to be non weight bearing for a month and a half, got cleared to start walking again about 3 weeks ago. Slowly trying to get back to myself again, it’s proving to be a lot slower process than I hoped, but hoping in the long run my knee will be better off.

It has been so nice being back in the gym and moving my body again. These last 3 months mentally have been brutal. Taking away movement is like taking a way a piece of me. My literal job is to teach kids how to move - and here I’ve been not being able to do it myself. Not liking what I see in the mirror anymore and noticing all the muscle loss that has happened. It’s been tough.

But here we are 3 months post surgery starting to feel a little more like myself everyday.

Here’s to anyone who’s going through a down swing whether physically or mentally - you’ll be back. Nothing can keep you out. One day at a time. 🤍
