Answer: Resuming Physical Activity Post Tummy Tuck Hello,Thank you for your question. I allow my patients to resume cardio activity starting at 3 weeks post tummy tuck, and then more strenuous activity including weights and abdominal exercise at 6 weeks. You will need to discuss this with your operating surgeon as they know your situation the best. Each surgeon has their own preferred post op protocols.Take care

Answer: Returning to Weights and Spin Classes After aTummy Tuck This is something you need to discuss with your surgeon who knows you best. Each surgeon has their own post operative instructions for their patients. For my patients, I want them to wait 6 weeks before returning to any type of formal exercise. Good luck.

Answer: When can I start weights and a spin classes after a full tummy tuck? Thank you for your question. The best person to advice you is your specific surgeon as every surgeon will have his/her preferences as to recovery for specific procedures. Usually, patients can return to light activities almost immediately after surgery, normal activities 2 weeks after surgery, and vigorous exercise 4 weeks after surgery. We usually experience a slow steady improvement for 3 months or so after surgery.

Answer: When can I start weights and a spin classes after a full tummy tuck? Congratulations on having undergone the tummy tuck procedure. Always best to run these types of questions by your plastic surgeon, who knows exactly what was done, how you are progressing, what type of exercise you wish to return to, and is ultimately responsible for your care.
