Volleyball???

[Syndy 0]

Hi Everyone, I just got banded on Friday, Feb 8, 2008. Before the band I would play sand volleyball at least 3 times a week. I was just wondering if anyone out there plays and how long it took you to get back in the game.

Thanks,

Syndy

Hi Syndy,

Volleyball is the BEST!! You should be able to go back as soon as your body tells you it's OK. Give it a couple of weeks, and then take it slow paying attention to twinges and pulls. You can't hurt your band but you should allow plenty of time for healing, and since everyone heals differently you're the only one who will know when you're ready.

Congratulations on your banding!

Hi Sydny,

I am an equine junkie, You want to know how long to wait on going back to what you love, well let me tell ya horses arn't exactly a mild form of excerzie, and for me i know i probably shouldn't have but i got back on 3 days out of surgery. But i was carefull and had no problems, volley ball is alittle more dangerous cuz your jumpin around and stuff, so i would wait untill your incisions heal before hittin the sand:)! Congrats on the banding, best thing i ever did for myself!
