    I think you just have to judge it carefully, you dont want to overdo it and make healing time any longer but you could probably ease back into it with some light cardio if you’re feeling okay. Just avoid anything that will strain the chest for a few more weeks x

    My nurse told me not to go back to the gym until after week 6, but I guess it all just depends on how your feeling like phoebe said. Personally, I would wait I wouldn’t want to risk anything happening to them? x

    Hi girls, it’s 6 wks to go back to the gym and even then you can do any exercises for your chest muscles or that use the chest as a secondary muscle till 12 months as that’s how long it takes to heal internally. I went back at 6/7 weeks to doing spinning, step, insanity etc and in the gym am just focusing on back, shoulders and legs xx
