Unhappy Out of the wheelchair

OMG, I forgot I had this I have been horning in, on a step counting thread. I never gave this exercise log a name.

Out of the Wheelchair is the name of this thread.

I actually did work my way out of a wheelchair doing these exercises three times. They gave me a physical therapist for a month, to get me started. I started out doing them every other night or so when the soreness was gone.

1--I worked my way up to 10 of each exercise. I sit with legs out on floor and point toes then curl toes back toward me.

2--standing and holding on with one hand if possible. Go up on toes and back down to floor.

3--standing and holding on, baby squat or dips.

4--Walk in place for count of 50 steps.

I have reached first goal of 10 exercises plus 50 walk in place

New goal will be: 20 exercises and 100 walk in place. PT was brutal about shoving a new goal on me immediately.
