#2 Get active

Workout, run, walk, swim, ride your bike, lift weights, do push ups, and get active. If the Caps players will be getting in shape in time for training camp so should we. After all why not train like a pro.

Everybody is training to get back including Tom Wilson. Wilson had to undergo knee surgery that’s going to keep him out for at least the first few months of the 2022-23 season.

Wilson’s recovery footage included video of him in a swimming pool working on the speed, and strength in his leg trying to get his range of motion back.

In another video, Wilson was shown getting worked on by a physical therapist. He tagged Matt Nichols who runs the annual Bio Steel Camp every summer and wrote “On the road”.

Wilson tore his ACL in his left knee when he was trying to make a hit in Game 1 of the Capitals first round playoff series against the Florida Panthers. It was right after he scored a goal too.

Wilson tried to come back during the playoffs but he ultimately couldn’t so now his goal is to get back around Thanksgiving at the earliest. Wilson underwent surgery in the torn ligament in late May.
