Day 63
Today is the day that I will continue to do long arc quads, 3-way hip by the step, and hip ABD & ER.  It is time to wake those muscles up.  Pain meds only if necessary.  I haven't taken more than 3-4 x 1/2 pill over the last 4 weeks.
Pain is minimal but there is a burning in the buttock and posterior lateral thigh.  Go figure, I had a major hip surgery. Still not able to ascend steps without cane unless I want some discomfort and not a stable feeling.  Bone grows better with weight to elicit production so...
I will come back as the day progresses to update on my attempt to activate cut or unused muscles
Well I did everything I thought I would and most of the exercises provided no lasting discomfort except...SLR with straight or bent knee and ABD against gravity.  There is nothing there besides pain.  Oh well it will take time and you have to test the waters 
I am not however using the transfer bench to take showers but I am still getting help putting on and taking off socks and jeans
