Olympic gymnast Louis Smith says that he needs to "lie down" for 15 minutes throughout rehearsals for Strictly Come Dancing.

Olympic silver medallist Louis Smith has revealed that he needs regular rests during rehearsals for Strictly Come Dancing.

The 23-year-old has claimed that previous gymnastic injuries have resulted in his inability to complete intense dance rehearsals without a break.

"People think that because I went to the Olympics I am superhuman but I have a torn cartilage in my knee that needs an operation, a fractured ulna and swollen vertebrae in my back," Smith told the Radio Times. "So every 15 minutes I'll have a lie down for five minutes."

Smith, who dances on the BBC One reality show with professional partner Flavia Cacace, is favourite to win the contest.
