I had PT again today. I had a different therapist who was more aggressive in stretching and massaging out my hip, which I definitely liked. I'm ready for it. I did some dynamic stretching after the hands on massage and stretching, followed by about 15 minutes on the Alter-G. They love their precious Alter-G, and they should... It probably costs an insane amount of money. I'm also sure it works super well for a lot of people, and most running related injuries. Running on the Alter-G again today made me even more sure that it's not a good thing in my rehab. I'm over it though, the thing doesn't do anything for me. In fact, it brought on soreness that I don't feel while running on the road, at least not right away. Sure I feel some soreness after running outside, but it's certainly not immediate like it was on that machine today. I don't have any desire to get back on it. It's too bad I had to leave after running on the Alter-G, because otherwise I thought it was a very productive session, actually my best yet. I'm just bitter.
Due to the mental hit I took in missing out on that hike last weekend I've been getting lazier with doing the PT exercises I should be doing. I have to buck up and get back on that though. I only have myself to blame for that one.
