Day 2 back at work went pretty well. I was able to sit for most of the day again as well as keep ice on it. I'm still getting the same pain at the top of my knee that started yesterday. The rest of the exercises went well this morning however. I did another 20 minutes on the bike, all in the small ring on the 13 tooth gear. It's getting easier to put a little more power to the pedals and I'm starting to get an actual workout from my rides on the trainer. I'll stick with 20 minutes the rest of the week and possibly add a few more minutes this weekend.
I have noticed that I am able to bend my knee a little bit further and that more of the swelling has gone down. Wearing the brace is about to drive me insane, but the PT says that it's the surgeon's call as to when I can get rid of it for good. It's pretty bulky and doesn't really stay in place that well. I guess it is good for protecting my knee from wayward middle schoolers though.
Yesterday was a rest day, workout-wise, but I picked it back up today:
Pull-ups 6x12
Push-ups 6x20
