I had a tummy tuck without muscle repair, I feel great! Was able to stand and walk straight couple of days after surgery, no pain at all. When will I be able to resume my spinning classes?
Answer: Exercise after a tummy tuck I usually recommend waiting 6 weeks before starting heavy exercise. You should walk as much as possible though. Check with your plasti surgeon to be certain.

Answer: Resuming exercise This question is best directed to your plastic surgeon as he/she is most familiar with your procedure. In general, I recommend no heavy lifting or strenuous activity for 5-6 weeks after tummy tuck surgery. Best wishes,Dr. BasuHouston, TX

Answer: Spin Class after Tummy Tuck Thank your for your question. I allow my patients to be begin vigorous exercise and activity 4 weeks after surgery, but to avoid or to modify any activities that cause pain or leave one sore afterward. A spin class should be fine but you should check with your surgeon first. We encourage all of our patients to walk daily, even on the day of surgery.

Answer: Exercise After #tummytuck Tummy tuck can take many different forms. It is not commonly done without muscle repair so your rules will likely be different than most. Without muscle repair, the biggest concern is stress on your incision. Though it is unlikely to come apart once healed, the stress applied to a scar is absolutely related to the end appearance of the scar. Your surgeon will certainly want to weigh in on the issue. He or she has a vested interest in your care and your outcome and a specific knowledge of your case.Best,Dr. Pyle
