I am from old (old) dairy farming stock and went through a gallon of milk a day for my adolescence. My bones should be as stout as stout gets.

They were going to turn me loose on Tuesday after checking in (?) Sunday night. Unfortunately, as I was on the walker Tuesday morning, heading to head, I fainted. That kept me in an extra day. I was already off the Dilaudid IV, which was key.
I'm not sure you adductor will ever be 100%. It's weird, as even now, I struggle to tie my left shoe whilst sitting down. I blame it on age, as it gets better every year. The walking thing will just happen. One day, I realized I wasn't walking without a limp. Same with running. It'll come back, even though it's not at all important to me, but your case is certainly much different.
The shower seat we got was magic. Even now, I wish I were still using it.

Yeah, I am a big believer in shock loading too, as in running down stairs. I don't think I have much of a genetic predisposition, but I weigh 140 lbs and tend sit around on my ass when I'm not on the bike, so I'm a set up. Gotta start the squats again, like coach @LAJ keeps telling me too.

I'm on the Brave browser. They tell me cookies are effectively blocked. Or rather that the digital me never appears the same, visit to visit. I just logged in again, btw. On another site I used to frequent, I had to verify my device each and every time I logged in. That right there is the reason I no longer go there.

The in-laws look at real estate every time we come here. Maybe one of these times.

Of course, I'm no Doctor, but your knees will be the last thing that you'll mess with when you do squats. I'm sure you know... If your form is proper, squats are the best thing you can do because it works a whack of stuff in the old bad. Dead lift is decent as an accompaniment. If you get to the point where form breaks down, back off on the weight until you regain it. Grinding is bad.

I'm not sure what you're saying, but I don't like to run, though I can. My adductor is still tight on that side, but it functions pretty well. When I lean over to tie my shoe, my leg/knee kicks out. Not like it did at the start, but it still does a bit.

Without cookies, the site has no way to know who you are after the session is closed. It does not know you validated yourself to a username, nor that you accepted the TOS. Therefor upon returning you are immediately required to go through the process. This is what you want when you want no cookies...
Latest development: I've found that LPLO can be worked around by switching between mobile and desktop modes. Get an LPLO on desktop, switch your browser to the mobile version, click on the last page and it'll happily take you there. Upon switching back to desktop mode, the page will remain unlocked, whether or not you've posted. The reverse works if you experience the rare mobile LPLO on the phone, too.

Nice here today. Pic taken by a friend from the opposite side of the valley from me.
