Exercise After Breast Augmenation (insanity/p90x)?

By this time, I'd say it's safe for you to proceed as long as you wear a good sports bra. However, you should ask your surgeon first as they may have different guidelines.Make sure to start off slowly and build up intensity gradually.

You should ask your surgeon for specific advice on their recommendations as they are the  person who knows you best.  In general, I have my patients start exercise as tolerated after two to three weeks and increase the intensity over time.

 

Good luck.

I tell my patients that as long as they heal normally, they should be able to do almost any activity 6 weeks after surgery. Push ups, running, etc. should not be any problem. I would still be slightly cautious with extreme weight lifting, but the insanity and P90X programs use your own body weight and are not based on extreme weights, so you should be able to start your insanity now if you like.

Great question. I allow my patients to return to exercising 4-6 weeks after surgery, but I have them start with light exercises.  I suggest they increase they're intensity by about 10-20% a week until they reach their goal. P90X and Insanity workouts are pretty vigorous, so I definitely suggest you check with your PS before proceeding.

I hope that helps and wish you all the best.

Thank you for your question.

I would highly suggest that you ask your surgeon and follow his/her advice in regards to doing these types of workouts.  If your recovery has been uneventful, your surgeon may give you the green light to proceed with these types of exercises but I would ask that you listen to your body and start slowly.

Best wishes.
