I'm currently personal training and have surgery scheduled for next Wed. My trainer wants to train Monday and Tuesday before I am going to be down for awhile. Is this okay? The workouts are pretty intense and I want to make sure I'm not taking away from my body's ability to heal. Thank you!
Answer: Training
As long as you are hydrated you are able to work out before your surgery. I would replenish with Gatorade, at least 64 ounces, the night before, too. Enjoy the last day before your procedure and happy healing!

Answer: Workout prior to surgery
I tell my patients to get a good workout the day before surgery
after all it's going to be a little while before they can workout again
there is also some suggestion among drs that this might decrease the risk of dvt

Answer: Workouts before surgery
Workouts are fine before surgery; however, you do not want to do fatigue workouts or workout intensely in the area you are having surgery on so that is it sore before surgery.
You want to be well rested, hydrated and comfortable. Showing up tired, dehydrated and sore, will not help the experience. Tiredness decreases your body's endorphins (pain killers), dehydration leads to more post-operative nausea and in the worse case low blood pressure problems, and preoperative muscle pain means more post operative muscle pain.
The best thing to do is to ask you surgeon. Unlike me, they know what surgery you are having, and can ask more specific questions about your workout. Good luck.

Answer: Exercise Pre-Rhinoplasty Yes. Since no work has actually been done yet, exercising the day prior to your nose job should not interfere with your surgery. Still, I would take it easy and consider having a relatively light workout so as to not put strain on your body. It is important, however, that you refrain from working out for 10-14 days after your rhinoplasty procedure. This is to make sure that you are having a proper recovery and are giving your body enough time to rest and heal after surgery.

Answer: Can I Workout the Day Before Surgery?
I wouldn’t overdo anything the day before your surgery. Certainly you want your body to be in optimal condition, but I would be cautious about day before exhaustion.
