Should I take any "rest days" prior to my surgery?

Thank you for your question. Maintaining a regular exercise schedule is
recommended. Maintaining good health
always makes a positive difference with regards to recovery. I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you for your excellent question.  Though there are no studies looking at the benefit of tapering activity before surgery I would give yourself two or three days off prior to surgery to ensure that you are fully healed from any strenuous chest-specific workout that you may have.  This will limit the soreness of the muscle and the tendency to spasm/cramp from surgery which should improve your pain with recovery.  Hope this helps.

Not sure that will make much of a difference. Just remember to follow your operating surgeon's post op activity limitations so you can get the best possible results. Good luck!

There should be no reason that you should need to "taper down" your exercise routine prior to surgery. The only caveat is that since you will need to stop eating or drinking at midnight before surgery, be sure that you are well hydrated before starting the "fasting" period before surgery.Best wishes!

Thanks for sharing your question. I can
appreciate your concern.Fitness is a good adjuvant to fast recovery after surgery. however, overworking the muscles that you will have treated during a surgical procedure may increase the trauma and delay the recovery from surgery. Unfortunately there are no studies demonstrating the harm or benefit of exercise before breast augmentation.Finally, make sure that your doctor is
aware of your process. He should be able to guide you best in your care.

Wishing you the best in your journey

There is no reason to stop your normal exercise routine prior to surgery. I would not try anything new the day before for risk of muscle strain, but a normal exercise routine is completely fine. There will more than likely be limitations following surgery, so make sure to discuss with your surgeon and follow his/her instructions.
