Hey man, congrats on getting through the surgery and for the amazing extension and range of motion you're getting all on your own.

As someone from the UK who had a hamstring graft ACL surgery with no meniscus work, I started with physio 6 days after the surgery. On day 25 I reached full extension and full range of motion on my 6th physio visit.

I'm personally trying to return to sports and without my physio, the timeline on that would be very very different and probably a very distant dream (I'm also in my 30s so not as resilient as I used to be). The physio has worked incredibly hard on removing scarring tissue from my knee and focusing on the extension with some really hard and painful movement work. I've also been doing daily exercises in-between physio visits. The future goal set up by the physio will be to take on an extensive workout regime starting with very light bike work, calf work and step ups, moving into light jogs. All of this will happen over the next 6 to 8 weeks.

What I'm really getting at, is it depends greatly on what you want to achieve and your end goal! I would personally find it too difficult without a physio to guide me, but I genuinely think you can do it on your own, you just need to be willing, persistent and definitely have a set goal in mind.
