To be honest I think it’s one of the only valid reasons for getting a dual sided pm. (Feel free to copy paste that quote, show it to your wife, and pay me later

Seriously though... in most cases trying to get the L/R balance spot on, can actually prove counter productive. And the optimal pedal stroke is much more complex than simply that statistic alone. But in your case I think there is a genuine reason for wanting acces to that data as it is a way of monitoring your ‘condition’.
I also agree with Berty in that the body does adapt. But I don’t think that means it’s coping. Moreover just working the best way it can under the circumstance. As Bob says, this can lead to other problems down the line. I had a guy working for me who started off with a bad knee. But through compensating for this eventually caused all sorts of other problems which meant ultimately a false hip, and compressed discs in his back.
This is the problem I have with my knee. People say to me, do squats to strengthen the muscle around the knee to take the pressure off the knee. But for me this is just papaweing over the cracks. Sure I’ll do the squats if that’s what it comes down too. But I want to know what the underlining issue is too.
