Asked By:ambersmith521 in Saint Augustine, FL

I am 1 week post op 365cc HP silicone! I am usually very active but have been taking it easy to recover! I would like to get back to the gym asap (as soon as my PS gives me the green light) the stair master is my cardio machine of choice! I usually do 30 minutes at level 7/8! Is it safe to use the stair master? If so, what level should I begin at? Is it okay to hold on the the side bars for balance? I don't want to displace my implants.
