Met calorie goal.
PT 45 minutes.
Bike 35 minutes.

PT was great today. Learned a couple of new things that look easy but are actually hard for me. One was marching in place and holding. You lift your leg like a march and hold it for a second, then do the same with the next leg. Started out super easy and was tired after doing it 3 times (30 count each leg x 3). Also got a couple of other new exercises.

We talked about how to alternate exercises to get the most bang for my minutes. She suggested 2 standing, 2 laying, and 2 sitting. Then do different ones the next day. All are designed to help my hip and the muscles around it, but by doing it in different positions I can make sure I am using the muscles slightly differently.

I asked her about foam rollers. They tend to be floor exercises. It is difficult for me to get up and down from the floor. She didn't seem really excited about them. I think I will ask the PT next week about them again, as I will be seeing a different PT.

Pressed for time, so didn't get my whole hour with the bike. I do some bike at PT along with whole body leg presses, so I don't feel so bad about not making an hour.

5th day of Novena to St. Thomas Aquinas.
