Slower, longer PT

That is one of the things that Nate’s PT person keeps stressing to him. She keeps telling him not to push himself. She says he will backslide if he does.
To me that is great. She is very smart and knows what can happen.
You can only do what your body is ready for at this point. The nerves have to regenerate or grow new roots and that takes time.
The only way you will know that this has happened is when you start feeling stronger muscles and they don’t get weak quickly.
If you still feel muscles are not responding, it means they can’t yet cause the nerves that feed them are not done repairing.
Pushing yourself can only hurt you. You cannot get it all back in a short time. It just doesn’t happen that way. You have to give it the time it needs.
