I pulled a hamstring during the New York City Marathon. An hour into the race, I jumped off the couch.
The moment when I broke my leg, when I realized my leg was broken, I thought my career was over.
After an injury, I think you have to be strong mentally.
I'm really not an injury-prone player. I just had that one injury that took, like, two years.
Injuries are psychologically so hard for an athlete because you don't get to do what you love to do.
It's always kind of a weird thing when you come back from an injury, especially with your heart.
Any athlete or any actor who's preparing for a long time to step on a stage or step on a field or step on a movie set, who suffers an injury right before you're getting ready to perform or to execute - it is a massive challenge that's thrown your way that you didn't expect.
I've never been in any pain, ever, like that in my whole life. Now it's set me so far back, I just don't' have the lung capacity to swim the way I can.
When you pick up injuries, you put yourself to the bottom of the pile for a bit and have to work yourself up.
I think I had about a month off when I broke my rib in Australia, which was magnificent.
I tried to go to the gym a while ago and hurt my foot. I thought, 'Well, exercise and I just aren't meant to be.'
I think staying away from wrestling for two years with injury and the movie, I lost my focus.
Growing up, we were very similar, but Steven got a bad injury. It set him back a year. But for that, we would have progressed at the same time.
When it got to the diagnosis of my knee and when I realised how long I was going to be out, my thoughts spiralled out of control.
I damaged my hamstring at the London Olympics and had to stop training for five months. At times, I thought my career was over.
My true dream, ever since I was a kid, was to play professional baseball. It's something that I worked my whole life for. But that didn't work out with the knee surgeries and whatnot.
