Ms. Namita Nayyar:
In September 2010 you underwent surgery on your right shoulder to remove an inflamed bursa. What was your fitness regime for recovery after such a nightmare event in the life of a sportsperson ?
Ms. Stephanie Rice:
It was really hard for me to take time off after surgery. I had to change my training regime for 4 months until my shoulder had healed. I was doing a lot of cross training, such as running, spin class, leg exercises and abb work as well as kicking in the pool to try and stay fit and then build into swimming very slowly. My days were very inconsistent and every day was different which was frustrating for me because I thrive on positive momentum.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
Who has been your greatest influence and motivator in your success in the field of swimming ?
Ms. Stephanie Rice:
Most definitely my coach Michael Bohl…He is my mentor!! Aside from that I am very inspired by Serena Williams, she is my favourite athlete to watch and I admire her determination and continual success…only the best of the best can win back to back competitions like that.
Ms. Namita Nayyar:
