Last day of physical therapy today


Roughly a month after starting physical therapy, I'm done.

I have a nice little set of exercises and stretches… 
3×10 reps q day on the exercises (4 seconds between reps, 1 minute rest between sets)
1×3 reps on the stretches, twice per day (20 sec hold, 30 sec rest)
AROM hip/knee flx supine
AROM lumbar alt arm/leg (hip bird dog) w/ ball
AROM lumbar alt leg supine on Ball

However, the Bosu seems pricey… (I’ve seen some of them for as much as $150)
