‘Realised I still have two arms and one good leg,’ he wrote. Slow and steady but still moving forward, not backwards…

Tim tore his muscle right before he was about to score on the footy field, and said he will be relying on crutches and a leg brace ‘for the next month or so’ during his rehabilitation as he approaches turning 40.
‘In a moment of what can only be described as pure glory… I was dashing down the footy field in glorious full flight… about to score… and then RIP,’ Tim began his post.
The fitness enthusiast revealed how he had to have his rectus femoris muscle reattached in order to ‘walk and run again properly’.
Hindsight: Tim regretted having not done a proper warmup ahead of the game, and thanked the ‘wonderful staff and doctor’ who helped put him ‘back together’
Rehabilitation: The reality star also revealed that his rehabilitation won’t be a walk in the park. ‘So now it’s crutches and a leg brace for me for the next month or so whilst I rehab and get in the best shape of my life approaching 40,’ he wrote
