The better shape you are in BEFORE the operation, the easier will be your recovery. Get a list or picture of the post-op exercises and do as many of them as you possibly can. Naturally you should not hurt yourself or torture yourself, just do everything you gently can. This, and have a good attitude. Make up your mind that you will recover quickly, it helps.

@nightwatchrenband I agree totally. I worked hard at getting in shape beforehand and the recovery was much easier. By the time i had my TKR I was actually in considerably less pain because I had strengthened the supporting muscles.
