What The…

I noticed something a little surprising today.   I was putting on my air cast boot and noticed that my right shin seemed really bony.  After further inspection I could both see and feel the differences between my two legs.  Most especially in my calves.

This was really surprising to me.  I knew that I wouldn’t be using my right leg for a bit, so I’ve been doing some exercises mostly just for movement and to keep the joints working.  But not being able to weight bear limited anything I could do for strength.  

Chalk it up to naivety, but I hadn’t really anticipated this kind of muscle loss.
