This was my first time attempting yoga again after my injury. I appreciated being able to return to a space that was so understanding about the frustration behind the recovery.
Loved it. I happened to turn this on exactly after three months, that time when you feel sick of what your body has turned into and you wanna desperately turn it around and into what it was earlier
College athlete here, had my whole basketball career derailed and 8 months people are excited for my recovery and see it in actuality, just discovered this and it made me realize I have lots of work to do still this stuff is hard! Thank you for this video, yoga will be part of my daily routine for sure now
Your yoga practice was so cathartic to me. I’m currently just over 3 months post op, almost 4. During the seated hamstring stretch I honestly almost started crying when you were talking about how it feels like we’re better but not 100%. Sending all the love and good vibes towards you from this act of service.
Hey Gemma! When I searched this, I am also in 3 months post op for the left knee complete tear ACL with quad tendon autograph. I have been looking forward to get back doing exercise I love again especially yoga.. Every milestone is a progress, even to get back biking on the street again. Your words of encouragement along this video soothed me and reminded me to be okay with the progress we are now. The pain comes and go and like u said, some day it's better, but the other day it seems like not progressing enough. But here we are ACL warriors
Hi Gemma! Thank your for sharing this! I am currently 4 months post op to this exact day! I’ve been looking for some yoga videos as that’s what I love to do from time to time when I get all tight. I had a patellar tendon graft for my new acl in my left knee and I used the graft from my right so in a way I had both knees operated on. I tore my acl completely through in my left knee. I can’t say how thankful I am for you creating this video!
I’m 1 year post op, and I’ve also had to have manipulation under anesthesia due to problematic scar tissue and insufficient range of motion. I’m about 3 weeks post-MUA, and I cried during this session as well. It’s refreshing to know I’m not completely alone in my journey, and how overwhelming the feelings of frustration and impatience can be. Thanks for a good class- I’ll be using this a few more times in my recovery process for sure. ❤
Hey, I am so pleased you found this video helpful. I argee, the recovery process is emotionally draining. You've got this! I hope the recovery is going well.
I am 3 months post op, patellar graft taken from my left knee, for my left knee, and I still can't fully bear weight on top of my knee by itself, so table top ones I only did on one side, overall really nice to be able to do some yoga though, haven't been able to since my injury 🙏🏻 😊
Thank you so much! I am one week into post op and this was beautiful. I had a quad graft. I have regained strength in my left leg and can walk without crutches but with a brace. I am so grateful that you made this video for us. Obv I couldn't bend my knee more than 45 degrees
Thank you so much for this video! It is exactly what I needed I have been feeling so tight with all my physical therapy and weakened muscles. I am going to do this video every day for awhile!
Hey Gemma! Hope you're doing well. I'm at the same stage-12m po. I still cannot lift my leg straight like the other one. Also I limp while walking. I gets stiff if i sit ideally for more than half an hour. Mornings are terrible. Did you face any of these issues? Has it been a year? How's it going now? Please tell me it gets better:( kinda losing it
Hey, thanks so much for your comments. I am in the process of doing a one year on video. Like you, i still suffer with tightness in my knee which is so frustrating. I don't feel it will ever be like it was before the injury sadly.
Hey, I was 4 months post surgery here so sitting on the ground was very much accessible for me again. i understand that everyones recovery time is different.

You got this! Good luck with your recovery
This was my first yoga session after nearly 4 months post ACLr and meniscus surgical repair. I cried at the end. What a journey this is. Thank you.🙏🏼
You've got this! Hope the recovery is going well.
Your yoga practice was so cathartic to me. I’m currently just over 3 months post op, almost 4.

Such a lovely message to leave. Thank you ❤️
Will try this in a couple weeks two months rn post acl
Very helpful for MCL recovery. 🙌🙌

Can we seat on ground with operated leg ??
Hey, I was 4 months post surgery here so sitting on the ground was very much accessible for me again. i understand that everyones recovery time is different.
Is your op leg thinner than other?
Absolutely! I am working on building muscle back slowly.
@@GemmaLinaker 👍Please share your exercises which help you get muscle back.
@@ВиталийШалимов-ш5е great shout! I will do 👍🏼
