David Luiz steps up his recovery from knee injury on anti-gravity treadmill

CHELSEA outcast David Luiz has stepped up his recovery from a knee injury after posting a video of him working up a sweat in the gym.
The Brazilian hasn't featured since the Blues' 4-0 win over Qarabag in the Champions League on November 22.
Luiz, 30, hasn't played a league match since the end of October following a bust-up with Antonio Conte.
The pair were caught in a feud following Chelsea's defeat to Roma in October and has since lost his place to youngster Andreas Christensen in the heart of defence.
But he has showed he is not ready to give up his place just yet as he continues his road to recovery.
Luiz was videoed putting himself through the paces on a anti-gravity treadmill before posting a selfie of himself lying down sweating.

The former PSG man has been linked with a move away from Chelsea in the January transfer window after boss Antonio Conte refused to confirm whether he had a future at the club.
But the Italian gaffer may want to keep Luiz at the club with his Champions League experience.
Chelsea's draw against Atletico Madrid on Tuesday night means they finished second in their group and face a potentially nightmare draw in the Round of 16.
European heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain or Barcelona could be their opponents.
