How long should I wait until I go back to the gym, do classes, lift weights etc.
Answer: Breast Reduction Thanks for the question. After 4-6 weeks your operation area is totally healed and yes you can do gym and also do other sport activities. I wish you all the best.

Answer: 1-2 Weeks for Light Cardio, 6 Weeks to Get Back At It You can start light cardio (treadmill at a slow pace) at a week or so, which is good for your head and keeps your circulation going! Typically, after a breast reduction, patients can return to strenuous activity after around 6 weeks. However, your incisions must be healed before you begin training at the gym again. Too much activity will cause swelling to occur and delay your recovery.

Answer: Gym and weight lifting after breast reduction? As a bodybuilder, I understand the need to return to the gym. However, your incisions must be healed before doing any strenuous activity. I would recommend walking as soon as your plastic surgeon says it is OK until such time as you are cleared for strenuous activity. I recommend that my patients wait six weeks before performing strenuous exercise.Kenneth Hughes, MD, Board Certified Plastic Surgeon Los Angeles, CA

Answer: Starting Exercise After Breast Reduction This is something you need to discuss with your surgeon who knows you best. For my patients I want them to wait 6 weeks before starting any strenuous exercise, or swelling may occur. Good luck.
