Excerise

[lblaske 7]

Do you think it's too soon to go back to the gym? I had my surgery July 28th. I am not very sore anymore. I was just thinking doing the elliptical for 20 minutes. What's your opinion?

I don't think it's too soon I started back around 2 weeks post op but I walked on the treadmill for 30mins I went every other day to make sure I could handle it then Started going daily. I feels great to back in the gym! good luck to you!

My opinion is that you need to get your surgeon's opinion on this issue, assuming you weren't already given guidance about when to resume exercise.

I was cleared for any exercise at 6 weeks. did not start till my weight lost began to slow around month 4. just my story. but wait for physician's clearance to do strenuous exercise. Personally I dont think the elliptical is not very strenuous and there is very little impact, so if you go easy, you are probably fine. but im just some random person on the internet.
