Finally got around to putting together one of my Christmas presents from my son.
I have something similar. It came with zip ties to hold the belts. Instead of tying the whole thing and having the ties show, I ran them on the inside and used Velcro on the end of the belt.

I may have to invest in a little Velcro. Looks a lot cleaner.

Going in for Knee surgery this coming Tuesday. The surgeon said the recovery is about 3 months give or take as long as I do the exercises they prescribe.
Hopefully I come out on the other in better than when I go in. Remains to be seen.
At 53 I do not recover as quickly from things compared to when I was a younger man.
Oh well..Life goes on.

How's the knee David? Take it step by step and you'll be rolling again before you know it.
I had a fun time teaching leg locks at ViVo BJJ on Tuesday. Heel hook breaking mechanics, but mostly focused on safe training and the defense aspect of the leg locks. Going to teach more about setups and finishes next time, if there will be a next time. :D
Missed teaching away from the home gym. I hate the traveling aspect of it all, especially now with the fuel prices going up like crazy, but it's just fun to meet new people and catch up with old friends and share jiu-jitsu.

53 is the best age.
I hope it all goes well and you are back rolling with your son in no time.
Our thoughts and prayers go with you.

Reminds me of a song.
"I"ll be a private prancer, a prancer for money,
I'll do what you want me to do
I'm your private prancer, a prancer for money
And any old music will do.." LOL

Surgery done! Just at home relaxing.
It's already driving me crazy. Relaxing sucks!
Anyway, it went well. Getting stitches out on April 8th.
Starting to bend and straighten the leg in reps of ten lightly as directed. I was able to walk out of the hospital on my own.
I will do my best to recover and be stronger than I was before. Definitely will take some time. Don't want to screw it up.

Great to hear! Rest well and enjoy a little R&R, I know, I can't stand being still for too long either.
Rehab will be here before you know it.
I highly recommend yoga to help for strength and flexibility, it has done wonders for me.
