I'm an avid gym goer and weight lifter and am keen to know how long I need to rest and what to expect when I go back to training - how will my weight training need to change? Running? I know everyone is different but any advice I can get would be great. I'm 5'10 and going to a 550+ implant as I'm quite broad.

Answer: Workouts Hello,I advise my patients that they can return to regular upper body workouts at 6 weeks post op but it would be best for you to contact your Plastic Surgeon as they know exactly what your situation is and can advise you specifically.All the best

Answer: Post Op Exercising Hi and thank you for your question! Generally after three weeks you should be ok to begin low impact exercises however it is best to refrain from chest exercises until at least your 6th week post op. Surgeons have their own preferences in regards to returning to normal activities post op so it is best to consult with your surgeon before resuming your daily routine. Good luck!
