Andre Russell reveals 300 push-ups every two days keeps him going in rehab
Andre Russell has revealed that 300 push-ups every two days help him in getting back the match-fitness during the off-days and that is something he enjoys doing as well. Russell has further added that the performance is the end product of behind-the-scenes hard work done by the players.
Andre Russell set the Eden stage on fire with fireworks illuminating Kolkata’s night sky during his 17-ball 48-run innings against Kings XI Punjab. For the second consecutive time, he turned out to be the biggest difference and no matter what, he is going to be the team’s biggest punt in the next matches. This could have seemed very surprising a couple of years ago, when injuries threatened to derail his career, but he found a way to tackle that situation.
"While I was home, I was doing 300 push-ups every two days, and that was something interesting. As you can see, the push-ups help a lot …" Russell told team-mate Robin Uthappa after the game.
"It takes a lot, you know, rehab, you do boring stuff, rubber band, every day you've to be in the bed doing stuff like uhh-uhh, and burn your glutes, burn certain areas, icing, doing certain things, going into plunge pool … these things are annoying, but it's just what athletes being professional (have to do). The hard work that we put in behind the scene, you know, it comes out in the middle," the KKR star recruit further explained.
After winning the first two matches in the league, now, KKR will play their next four matches away with the next one being Delhi Capitals on Saturday.
