I am 17 weeks post op now and where I have been wanting to be. I have been doing boxing sparring since May 23rd (14 weeks post op). I threw my first kicks on the thai pads June 6th (16 weeks post op).
With Jason, I have been doing flowing with kicks. I have been focusing on my defense to kicks, knees, push kicks. I am trying really hard to get my defense together before actually sparring. I won't actually spar until I am 6 months post op. So, in about 7 more weeks I will try sparring with kicks.
My knee hurts today. But, I did a lot this week and trained the last 6 days. The only thing I am missing right now is harder conditioning. My focus at the moment is rehabbing my knee. I have jumped into the s&c classes at the gym and theres nothing I can not do yet. I am just trying to be careful.
16 weeks post op PT notes:
I did the Biodex test and my quad strength is 20-25% deficit. Hop testing indicated my left leg is 91% like my right leg. This is perfect. I go back next month for an evaluation and my goal is to be perfect!
15 weeks post of PT notes:
Ran 1 mile on the treadmill
Plyometric drill/Dynamic warm up: skipping, high knees, side step, kick backs, karaoke
PT set up an obstacle course: double leg box jump on the big box, jump down landing on both legs, single leg hop onto 8-12 inch box, jump down landing on the same leg, shuffle hurdles, clockwise hop through rings, 6 single leg burpees.

At this time, I stopped going to Golds, Bri got cleared to train. I started helping Jason get the fighters ready for WKA nationals by helping during the team class.
During this week I started doing my own conditioning routine to get my body back into motion. Warm up consisted of 1 round of jump rope but I kept on messing up during the 1 round.
I did 2 minutes of box/agility work, side to sides and toe taps. Then a few sprints and bear crawls. I did 1 lap of side steps and monster walks with the bands. I then worked on the heavy bag throwing punches only for about 7-2 minute rounds. For the last 2 rounds, I throw knees and kicks with the lead leg (healing leg).
At this time, it didn't feel weird to kick with the lead leg on the bag. But I was careful so prevent pain and swelling.
Worked the mitts with Jason and we worked on:
double jabbing, turn over the punches
jab cross, take a big step with jab
1-5-2, taking small steps with the 1-5
2-long, then twist step throw 3, if he faded, threw the 1-2...sitting on the cross.
Did many rounds of defense drills which was fun.
Held pads for Jason, just the basics, 1-slip, 1 slip cross.
11 weeks post op PT notes: April 30th, I did class for the first time with Bri. To warm up, I ran up and down the track. I felt like everyone was watching me when i was warming up.

By the end of the 11th week, I did the Saturday am class and worked on boxing only. I did 1-1-2-6-post-8...Jab, cross, right body shot, post, right hook to the head.
