    “It is just less than six weeks since the Wimbledon champion, three-times the runner-up in Melbourne, had surgery on his back and he has been focusing his rehabilitation in the pool and in the gym. To that end, Murray has been mingling with the millionaires at Chelsea, using their high-technology training facilities at their Cobham complex, and sharing stories with manager Jose Mourinho. “I’m doing a lot of stuff in the swimming pool, like the anti-gravity running,” Murray said. “Most of the stuff is just straight-line running in the pool. It’s basically like an underwater treadmill, which has been a massive help for me. It’s sped up the recovery a lot.”

    Muzza, why not just go to Mallorca and use one those anti-gravity treadmill contraptions which Rafa has got, or better still, buy one of your own, you can afford it!

  5. Andy’s description of the pool work brought back memories of my experience of the role played by exercising in a pool. I was left semi paralysed and in a wheel chair two years ago after sustaining multi fractures to the pelvis in a car accident. Luckily I fetched up in one of the best rehabilitation centres in France and in five months they had me up and walking. Now I am nearly as good as new!!!!

    A major part of the programme was the time spent with physios in the swimming pool every day even though I had to be lifted in and out of the pool on a hoist in the early stages.

    Andy’s goal is to get to the AO. Mine was not to spend the rest of my life needing a zimmer frame 🙁

  6. ed, congratulations for coming back from an accident like that. We’re admiring athlets in their prime for their incredible prowess, but what you’ve done, even with some luck, is a slam or more as well. 🙂

  8. ed,
    I read your account while on the public transit. That is quite an ordeal you went through and I am so glad you are almost entirely back to how you were before. Incredible. Good on you! I’m sure, as littlefoot is writing, that a lot of it depended on your own attitude, thoughts and efforts.

  9. I have given up riding, cycling,ice skating, and skiing and no foredeck work on the boat: probably would have done sooner or later anyway at my age 🙂

    Littlefoot: a lot had to do with vanity. ha ha

  10. often vanity is very useful in getting the reptilian brain and our other brains to go along doing what is wise for other reasons …. e.g. keeping our bodies healthy (so they look good 🙂 …

  12. It made my blood boil whenever people made snide comments accusing him of being a drama queen, using tactical MTOs and so on. I’m not talking about the venomous internet idiots but professional tennis players and ex-players who should know better. Hope they’re now feeling suitably remorseful.
