I went to the hip doctor again yesterday. That was the third time I’ve gone. Since the first time my flexibility and hip strength has greatly increased. I walked on a treadmill for 15 minutes at an 8% grade without incident. The odd thing was that my right glutes, the lower part of my right butt cheek, felt odd. It didn’t hurt it felt as though I was doing lunges. The physical therapist said I was feeling that because up until now (and from the time I hurt my hip) I haven’t been using that muscle. I’ve been walking in a non productive, and rather destructive, manor. That’s crazy!

So the PX90 has been on hold for nearly a month now as I haven’t wanted to agitate my hip. The doctor told me yesterday that I should go on a moderate hike to see what happens. Yay! I replied. So early next week I’m going hiking, assuming all goes well I’ll start on phase II (week 5) of PX90 in a week or so.

I’m looking forward to getting back to it. I finally got my spare AC back from my friend, so doing workouts in 90 degree weather shouldn’t pose a problem.
