Any issues with stretching/yoga on skin or with recovery post liposuction? 6 days post op.

Asked By:meanbankrobber in Fort Walton Beach, FL

I'm an avid triathlete who is eager to start training again! My PS told me I could go on long walks/easy bike as long as I kept my heart rate below 120bpm. I was wondering if there would be issues with gentle non-aerobic exercise like hatha yoga or weightlifting as long as I kept my heart rate low? I'm 31 and was in excellent shape pre-op. I had liposuction of arms, back and flank. Today is day 6 post-op and have gone for leisurely walks since day 3.
