soccermom2 27 Posted March 17, 2017 When did your surgeon give you the ok to exercise? Things like jogging, going to the gym, or weight training. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diana_in_Philly 1,426 Posted March 17, 2017 I was cleared to do anything that was under 15 pound lift as soon as I felt up to it. My surgery was on a Tuesday. By Saturday, I was sitting on the recumbent bike at the gym and did about 45 minutes of cardio. I was walking hours after surgery. After my 2 week post-op visit, and my incisions were checked, I was cleared to do whatever I felt up to. I got in the pool at that point, because swimming was easier on my knees. At about three weeks out, I started working with my trainer again - cardio, weights, whole nine yards. But your team may have a different opinion. 1 Judymo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sleevinpops 303 Posted March 18, 2017 I was sleeved 2/9 and still waiting for clearance for weights (more than a gallon of milk) as there is apparently risk of causing hernias in the stomach muscle area. Expected to be cleared on 3/28. Check with your doc tho. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
