Elliptical machines rock.

I have a titanium plate and 6 screws in my left knee from a drunk driver hitting me. Was in a wheelchair for a while and then on crutches for MONTHS then could walk, but had to use a cane. I was never supposed to get beyond that.

I ordered an elliptical machine and used it. Was the only thing I could do that didnt put me in unbearable pain. After a few weeks I could walk without the cane, and after about a year I didnt even limp anymore. Now I can run and do everything I could before, but I still use the elliptical because its no shock to my joints at all.

My othopedic surgeon was amazed, he said this would be a disabling injury for me. But of course he takes all the credit for my full recovery. I told him the best way to see me do something successfully, is to tell me I cant fucking do it.

Get an elliptical machine, you wont be sorry.
