Anyone out there in USMS/Board world had a total hip replacment or hip resurfacing? If so, here are my questions:
1. How long until you were back in the water training?
2. How long until you were back in the water racing (pool and/or open water)?
3. How long until you could do flip turns and push hard off the wall?
4. How long until you were biking?
5. How long until you felt "normal?"
6. What is your experience re range of motion post surgery?
thanks

Gd....your right on about seeking out a good O/S. I think I've got the best. We both swam for the same age group club. I was on my way out and he was on his way in. He was a Canadian National Team member in the late 80's - early 90's, 1991 World University Games 100 back champion and at the age of 39 he recently went a 1:00.88 LC 100 back, just missing the Canadian Pan Pac Trials QT.
Up until May we trained with the same age group club. He has a great interest in how I'm progressing. His attitude and attention to detail are second to none. That alone may be worth a few tenths.
