When did you guys start excercising after surgery? Not the daily walking but weights or something more strenuous.

For the first year after surgery, I walked 30 minutes each and every day. I was cleared for lifting after my first follow up appointment with my surgeon. I am not so much lifting weights because it seems like wasted effort to me but rather into manual labor. So during each of the second and third years after surgery, I moved 100,000 pounds of gravel by hand along with around 60,000 pounds of concrete blocks for one of my building projects around the house.
