If you are having a straight mastopexy without implants and your healing is normal and not complicated, I think you should be fine. If you had implants placed along with your breast lift, you might want to consider a longer waiting period, as a direct blow/fall on your chest could arguably affect your implant and the pocket that they are healing in. Of course check with your plastic surgeon and get clearance prior to any strenuous activity as he/she knows the details of your procedure.
You should be OK 5-6 weeks post this procedure, unless you have a complication such as an infection,shift of an implant,bleeding or any other problem.
