I recommend to space out the sessions with an even amount of days in-between for better recovery. Example: Day 1 is a Monday and Day 2 is a Thursday.
Just a reminder - when you’re training in areas of weakness, limitation, or past injury - it’s important to keep your intensity levels low at first. The quality of tissue in these areas might not be very strong, so the amount of stress/force/load these tissues can absorb will be low at first. So keep those intensity levels low in the beginning, especially during PAILs/RAILs, and then gradually build up over time. The goal is to adhere to progressive overload and slowly build up. Always listen to your body and go at your own pace, and never work in any painful ranges of motion. Discomfort can be normal, but we never want that feeling to move towards a sharp pain, pinch, or twinge. It’s totally okay to work in smaller ranges of motion at first as well, and then gradually build up the range over time. Slowly building up in areas of weakness/limitation is definitely key!
I hope you enjoy the program!
