👉 Garmin I use: https://amzn.to/4seQPMw. (As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases. This doesn’t cost you anything extra.) 8 weeks after hip surgery, I finally got back in the pool… but I wasn’t prepared for how it would feel or whether I'd be ready. In this video, I document my first swim since surgery: 👉 What surprised me 👉 What felt good 👉 What was much harder than expected I also break down how much swimming fitness I’ve lost (using my Garmin data) and share the latest physio exercises that are getting me through this stage of recovery. If you’re recovering from surgery, injury, or time off training, this might give you a realistic idea of what to expect when you return. I’m currently documenting my journey after hip surgery (FAI impingement + labrum repair), sharing the real ups and downs along the way.
