Tore my acl Help !!!
Hi all.
Well, I tried to add cardio 3 x a week, to help me lose some fat & weight, but unfortunately, during my step class, I hurt my knee so bad, I dropped like a stone.
Went to the doctor, and was told I tore my acl in my left knee, & badly sprained my right ankle. So I am in a knee brace, an ankle cast, & have to use crutches.
I AM SO ANGRY AND UPSET RIGHT NOW !!! BEEN CRYING EVERY DAY. I don't know if I'm more upset over the pain, or being angry about injuring myself.
I was told no lower body exercise & no cardio. I will most likely need surgery as well.
He said I could still do upper body as long as I'm sittting down, and the weights are light.
But what the hell am I gonna do ? With spring right around the corner, me sitting on my butt all day, I fear I'm gonna gain more weight & fat !!!!
ANY ADVICE !!!!! on working out ? or nutrition ?
because I will be limited in what I can do now for quite a while !!!!
THANKS !!!
