Soonest I can go gym after op?

I had my op last Sunday and am already desperate to get back to the gym before I go away in 6 weeks time. How soon has everyone else gone back? Obviously not lifting but just low cardio or something? Thaaanks xx

i got told 6 weeks but really dont wanna have to wait that long 🙁

Yeah that’s what I got told too but think I will have to break that rule haha. Not sure how much effect it will have if I do start going earlier x

The nurse gave me the okay to do light lower body at my one week po. So I started on the exercise bike gently for 30 minutes at 10 days I think. To be honest my body found it quite difficult to start with. I was told at my 8 week surgeon check that I was good to go which was good news as my incisions had been opening to get rid of a stitch and I thought it would be an issue. Its been 12 weeks now and I am back in the gym properly doing cross fit, but find that I still don’t like lifting things above my head. Your body will soon tell you if you’re doing too much lol xxx

Ohhh ok, hopefully ill be able to do the same then! Have my post op on Tuesday so will mention it then. Thanks xx
