we played against some teenagers lol they were decent and I was the goalie because I'm pretty slow still and cant kick the ball nowhere as hard as I was able to pre surgery I'm at like 20% power right now it feels like lol and I was getting scored on between my legs pretty easily haha they're too long now so it leaves a gap open; I felt like I was sluggish and couldn't move as agile as I used to and it was a bit frustrating but I got to have patience and I was honestly just very happy that I had my soccer cleats on and I was kicking a ball around after so long! right leg feels pretty strong and painless, left leg is still a bit painful every time I'd kick the ball I'd feel a sting by my bone break site I think. but happy to be here at 5 months 3 weeks.


Amazing recovery!
Really interesting to know when you'll get back your original strength (or at-least 80-90% of it).

Haven't been on the forums guys I'm on vacation in Paris at the moment going back home tomorrow with much stronger legs!

all this walking around in these amazing museums and beautiful streets that makes me forget the pain of LL 6 and a half months ago built my legs quite well in my stay of almost two weeks here. I tried medium light jogging yesterday and it felt much more natural than my last video update. and then I went for a quick sprint and I'm able to move faster now for sure, not quite where I want to be yet but I can feel the improvement and I feel happy about that, for everyday activities I'm pretty much good now, pain lingers near my knees and hips where my screws are but nothing major, nothing I can't handle, I know soon they'll be removed and I'll hopefully have no pain anymore, been working on my flexibility as well and It's improving as well slowly but surely, so far so good guys I'm estimating by the 10th month post op I should be at at least 90% of my sprint speed pre op. I'll have a video for you guys at 7 or 8 months post of depending when I see another significant improvement to showcase. thanks everybody for the support on here and I wish all my LL brothers a good recovery.

Movie out for a little while again.

Amazing update Movie. It's great to see you enjoying life traveling in Paris, it feels just like yesterday that you were starting your journey. Your progress continues to inspire bro! Looking forward to the videos!

damn you have vascular arms XD

Would you still do femurs, if you have already a bit short tibias?

Hey Movie,

Just wanted to congratulate you on your incredible achievement so far brother! I see you jogging in the videos and that is very very impressive. This all goes to show that the younger LL is done the better.  Congratulations on the great progress man, safe travels back home.

Thanks Tiggy! appreciate your compliments and encouragement

Update: Month 7 Day 10 Post-Op

As promised guys here's an update from Month 7, on the sprints I feel I could've gone a bit faster if I would've had a longer field to run on and if it wasn't slippery due to the rain from last night. and as far as my funny looking jog and sprint that's similar to how I used to run before, now it's just a bit more waddley than before because of LL obviously.
