Excersize after HT

[Sickboy]

Hello all. Am due to have a HT next month (approx 3,000 follicles by FUT). I am a pretty regular gym goer, 4-5 times a week, nothing too strenuous, as a rule 30 mins weights, 30 mins cardio per session.

 

I have been told that I can start light cardio at 1-2 months, step up the cardio at 2 months and return to weights at 3 months post op.

 

Now i am not going to do anything that would risk the scar stretching, but I was just wondering what sort of timescale other FUT patients had adhered to post op before returning to excersize and whether their scar had been affected at all??

 

Thanks.

Sorry just found a full thread on this on one of the other forums on this site. Can't find how to delete this thread.

That's a good timetable - one that I pretty much use. A lot of doctors give different timings. But go easy on the weights and crunches. If you feel your donor area throbbing then you will know you've gone too far.
