A classic example of how being fit significantly shortens the amount of time to get mobility back. My wife, being overweight and never exercising (not being critical, I love her dearly, just stating the reality), is 10 weeks after surgery, is only spinning a bike pedal slowly and with much effort. Still using a cane, cannot easily walk upstairs by placing all her weight on the new knee.
