So I have fractured my ankle and have my foot in a really big ugly boot for the next 3 weeks before surgery.
I can walk and do everything normal in the boot, however I can't run!
I was wondering, what are some kind of exercises that I could do to keep me fit in the mean time. I've gone from exercising from 3-4 times a week to nothing and it's already been 4 weeks since I broke my ankle!
I just don't want to be really unfit for when I am able to play sport again!
