Better safe than sorry! Cardio is better than nothing at all I guess, it could be worse. I'll just continue with my cardio routine for a few more weeks, if I picked up a weight now I would just be paranoid the entire time anyways!

I appreciate the advice and I'll use it! Thanks!

I think that is a great idea, and good point.
Good-luck man and best wishes.

Hey guys...I realize this thread is probably six feet under by now, but I just wanted to share the opinion of another highly-regarded clinic (not of my own). I spoke with one of the receptionists from Hasson and Wong, and apparently the two physicians agree that one can resume mild-intensity exercise after 2 weeks (when the staples are removed), and this includes weight lifting with very light weights, so as not to strain the scar that is still in the process of healing. As for real heavy lifting which I specifically asked about, the receptionist informed me that it is best to wait at least 2 months post-op before resuming, apparently they've seen better healing results with patients who did so before going back to an intense routine. Don't take my word for it...give them a call and ask them yourself
