My Physical Therapy has been migrated from the pool to the gym.
That is a good thing it turns out. Water is very helpful- it gives resistance to movement and buoyancy to allow motions that would be difficult on land. But that same buoyancy limits the actual forces I deal with. I've improved to the point of really needing to strengthen the big muscles of my legs.
In the gym, I ride a type of bicycle (push pedal), do squats, stretches, step-ups, pull against rubber bands, etc. It is very effective. I feel like I've been working out afterwards. Muscle soreness- the good kind.
