I am bound and determined to get this left foot moving again soon, so I'm doing my own PT until the doc releases me to the drill sargeant. Nothing too strenuous--just some light stretching and toe movement exercises.
Today's trick--for your viewing pleasure by video today--picking up marbles with my toes and putting them into a cup. I thought this would be fairly easy, and it's really not too horrible. I have good motion with my big toe, but my little toes are fairly weak. So, they need a workout. My pinky toe is almost completely numb, so he needs a wake up call.
It amazes me that just picking up marbles with my toes can work the other muscles in my leg as well--it just shows me how out of shape I really am right now. I feel like a blob, but maybe my new gym in a bag will help with that problem. I just gotta get it out of the bag...
