Cracked Rib - Need help

I recently cracked a rib and as you can imagine - its had a massive impact on my training.

Im just wondering if you guys have any recommendations for cardio training with the injury.
Ive been swimming - but im unsure how much i need to do to keep myself fit so hopefully you guys could give me a little bit of help.

Cheers

Hey no big deal, just painful...stick with bike training or lower body cardio training which would not involve as much upper-body stress. Go for low target heart rate as higher heart rate = greater rib expansion = more pain for you.
