The Gym and Recovery

I know its like no exercise for x amount of weeks but surely if you arent lifting your arms ther would be no problem why you couldnt go to the gym like 2 weeks post BA and just do say, treadmill walking and seated bike? I’m not talking like rowing machine and cross trainer just gentle exercise to keep me sane. (gym freak alert) The gym is my method of destressing from work and the hubby lol

it has something to do with raising your heart rate and perspiration, sweating during exercise can cause germs to acculmilate in you incision thus causing infections, germs like moist warm areas.

but saying that im a gym freak and go 7 times a week and exercise at home and i was back in the gym 3.5 weeks post opp and going on long walks daily from day one of having my bA xx
