HI everyone I'm 10 days post op and I really want to get to the gym again. I'm doing my walking now but I was jw how early people start going back to the gym and what you start out with, cardio weight, ect.

Easy answer is: When your doctor tells you it's OK. Everyone's doctor and recovery is different though. I was cleared for all physical activity 4 weeks after my surgery and I do some weight-lifting three days a week (Planet Fitness circuit training) and cardio a few other days (an hour on the bike).

Before being cleared, I was told to walk as much as I could.

Correct follow your doctors orders I was released to the gym light cardio bike and treadmill only 7 days post gastric sleeve and after 14 days release for the elliptical
