Kim Zoller talks about finishing a brutal workout despite an orthopedic diagnosis: no cartilage on the left side of her left knee. She's ditching running and uphill walking, considering stem-cell injections, and pivoting to spinning while retraining her mind to stay positive.
Hi. I'm so glad we're taking strides today. I finished my workout, and it was actually a very challenging workout. Not physically at all, but totally mentally. You see, I went to the orthopedic surgeon last week, and they told me that the left side of my left knee has no cartilage, so I'm not allowed to run, and I'm not allowed to walk uphill. And I have to tell you, I kind of did a little bit of both today. Just a little. I'm not at that point yet where I can just be like, okay, I'm with that. So I'm figuring it out. I'm figuring out what I can do. I might do some shot with stem cells in it, which I think I am gonna do. It's so hard when, number one, we use the word hard. So I'm not gonna use the word hard when we love to do something and we cannot do it, so we have to replace it just, like a negative thought. We just have to replace it with something else. That's awesome. And the great part is, is that because I teach spinning, I'm just going to replace it with more spinning. Have the best day and think about what you can replace something that you don't want with something that you do.
