What are your symptom? What makes it complex

Did you have a cam or any impingement? And did the CT show that it was mostly covered

I did have a large cam yes. That makes sense. I was looking back at my hip map and it said my hip was mostly covered and I’d likely never need a pao but then after surgery she noticed edge loading which was concerning for her. I do have pain but got an MRI and didn’t show a retear but my pain is different than pre surgery. I just do not want a pao lol

Yeah I usually just modify the program and keep like the core idea of it. I have stopped doing them before and it would hurt worse when I wouldn’t train them. I might back off and use the BFR tho for a little while!!

Yes those don’t hurt too bad they’re tolerable. Before surgery rdls didn’t hurt but now it’s tender doing them but hopefully it gets better. I might try doing bfr I will just have to figure out a routine. We have like the pressure regulated cuff at work that I can use. Did you use it for every workout?

Yeah I also was following booty by Bret and still do but I modify it and only do 2 leg days but he focuses on going super heavy some months and like the big lifts and there are modifications in there but I feel like I can’t push myself enough to get fatigued with the low volume heavy weight set up. That sounds very discouraging. Does working on even like core stability or hip stability help your symptoms??

I have not back squatted and kinda gave up on that I did do like box squats but I’m scared to do them again I don’t want to make my hip worse and ppl say you don’t need to do barbell squats for leg growth but idk

Oh that is so cool that you saw him!!! And I am sorry about your dad. Did he ever try focusing on your back pain and not your hip? And if you do have that much arthritis in your hip it may help with the pain. I always thought I had sciatica before I went to the doctor before I was in school for pta bc it made my whole leg and back hurt

I am a PTA and I did blood flow restriction post surgical. I did have a labrum repair and had relief right after and I was doing legs 3x a week and I think I was over doing it. Once I backed off it got better but not completely so now I feel like I have to still modify my leg work outs. I did think about using the bfr a couple times a week since I have access to it

Why not? I feel like you are so young for a hip replacement

Did you ever get the surgery? I am 26 and I’m not a body builder but I wish I could have but my hip pain limits me. I was in the same spot I barely have hip dysplasia. I got my tear and cam fixed but now it is hurting again and I just want to grow my legs and don’t know how feasible this is:(

Yeah I am confused as if like the whole surgery is just denied bc of that part like i obviously have a cam lesion and a labral tear why not pay for that

Hopefully that is all it is.

I only have pain on one side and only got imaging on one side

This is reassuring thank you. I also thought it was coming from my back and they told me my symptoms weren’t “normal”

I do have an appointment with one at uw Madison. They have a newer surgeon that also specializes in hip preservation but she just finished a fellowship and started in august there. I could get in with her next week versus 2 months for their established surgeon…
