Yes, he's been doing since a very young age - about 5 or 6 I think, so we're hopefully looking at a future champ if he does stick with it. Despite his age he's actually got a string of girlfriends and is quite a hit with the ladies.

| I'm still getting over my knee reconstruction 6 weeks ago, but I've been back riding now for about 2 weeks. My regime is the following: - 3 Ibupfrofin tablets each day. One roughly every 8 hours. These not only beat pain, but they are also anti-inflammatory, which will help swelling. - Massage with Tiger Balm red each evening. This is applying heat. - After the massage, apply ice. Actually I have a special cryo-cuff thing that I wear.  - Gym maybe twice per week on the stationay bike and step machine. - I'm also having physio twice per week. I'm finding that riding, with knee bent sharply, is getting much easier. I think holding the leg bent in a painful position for an extended period of time is a very good thing as it increases the knee's range. But this has to be followed up with ice to reduce swelling. My tuppence worth. |
