I am aware that a lot of the initial gains are in "learning how to use the muscles like that at all" rather than in strength per se -- is that the thing? (i.e. please go on!)
But also I'm aware of how fucked up this particular knee is and what my usual deconditioning looks like on it, so "only" getting to the point where doing-the-same-stuff puts me right-on-the-edge-of-acceptable over the course of three months is genuinely kind of impressive to me even if I did do a lot of balance work fairly consistently in the middle :-p
(PS I... am a parody of myself and eBay has two pairs of Felco 2s "for parts/spares" for under fifteen quid; obviously I've put in a bid because I reckon I can restore them both with, at most, an additional spend of £13 for one replacement blade -- so... how are you sorted for secateurs? :-p)
