sprintin in the pool

My meniscus is torn

I tested it on all my usual training activities after a layoff yesterday - the verdict: sprinting, hurts.

My question - will sprinting in the pool at least give some benefit - will it replace sprinting in a better than nothing sort of way? I don’t mean sprinting running, like sprinting swimming. swimming as fast as I can.

It would at least train the same energy system… correct?

thank you all

But I don’t wanna buy anything!

clemson?
do you have any input?

thank you

An inexpensive way to sprint in the pool is to place a life jacket on the front and back. Every pool should have life jackets. Two placed like I suggested will hold you erect in the deep water while you simulate sprinting. Try it you will like it. I hope you can swim.
