Losing weight/fitness thread

Sorry to hear that. I would think about approaching the club and asking to put your membership on hold if you can’t play. May save you a few quid.
No need to as I’m allowed to play as walking is part of the suggested rehab. Plus I’m fully paid up till July so where we are then.

Weirdly the hip doesn’t hurt to turn or walk on. It’s actually sitting down or laying that makes it hurt where the joint closes up, Dr described it that movement and rotation could actually good for it as it opens the joint and stops any impingement. It’s when the leg is at 90° it hurts more, so can’t squat or run. I’ll know more on Friday as seeing the Orthopaedic dude in the afternoon, but the guy I saw today seems to think there will be some things I can still do that will strengthen the areas around it to aid recovery. As for the shoulder it is what is, doesn’t stop me playing and I have good and bad days, I just make sure I rest more when I get any twinges.

Even with my job I can’t completely immobilise myself or I wouldn’t be able to work at all. So I’ll see what they say Friday and hopefully prognosis will be good.

Fingers crossed for a good assessment
 
Well just finished the Orthopaedic Dr, must say the hospital have been great went in bang on time and straight from scan to Dr’s treatment room.

Prognosis there is no loose cartilage in the hip and it’s not a complete tear just a partial one, according to her really common in my line of work. Due to moving jobs they’ve already sent of my treatment plan to the hospital in my home area. She did say 3-6mths for full recovery, but has given me a list of acceptable exercises to strengthen the glutes and IT band area to protect the hip and aid recovery. Golf is absolutely allowed as the location of the tear means anything that open the hip like rotation movement is allowed as it doesn’t put strain on the area.

Been referred to a sports specialist physio in Farnham, as they work with military people to aid faster recovery and can do a full work up and plan around the Docs recommendation and the bonus is the one she’s suggested I can pay for additional sessions if I want them and they’re TPI qualified so could assist in my golf as well to prevent further injury 😍

A very successful day, part of me wishes I’d had this with the shoulder. 😂
