For those of you who have undergone TKA, how long did it take (if it happened) to reach your former FTP? I was at 240 at 60 y/o, but following knee surgery for a torn meniscus, I hit a plateau of 205 despite a good result from surgery and rehab. I had complete resolution of my symptoms after that surgery, just was never able to improve beyond the 205.
8 months ago, I had a poor outcome from the same surgery on the other knee. I’ve had persistent pain, swelling with only very recent improvement in my symptoms. I still have atrophy of the quad which is slowly improving and am finally able to train a bit harder. A quick ramp test on Zwift gave me FTP of 178. I’m wondering if this is the new normal?
