flexibility

Have taken up my Ashtanga vinyasa yoga practice again.
it feels really good, and I am sure that the practice is really beneficial to my rehab.

the main points are

general flexibility

hamstring stretch, this has worked out really well, after maybe a total of 20 sessions during the last year i have gone from barely being able to touch my toes, to almost being able to plant my hands on the floor.

core strength, some of the standing asanas are incredibly strenous, also surya namaskara B

hip flexibility, this is still my weakest spot, i am not even near being able to do a half lotus, and remembering my bad knee, i am really trying to progress slowly,

ankle flexibility, I still have a hard time doing a proper deep squat without supporting the back of my feet with something, 1 cm suffices, I really work hard on getting some more flex into my ankles, but they fight back pretty hard.n

my shoulders are also very tense, but i dont think this is as important as having flexibility in the hips and ankles.

I am convinced that the above improvements that yoga brings are essential for a good recovery.
