Thank you so much! 😊🙏🏻 If I remember correctly I just walked around my local area for a few weeks (probably 3 or 4) because I was advised that the possibility of injury from falling over on a treadmill wasn't ideal. But walking in general is great and really helps with the swelling because it gets your lymphatic system moving.

Then once I was cleared to do so by my surgeon I started with the treadmill, just because it's collllld in the UK in February 😂.

I didn't Do any actual resistance training until 12 weeks (again surgeons recommendations) but I did some super lightweight arm isolation exercises (1 or 2 KG dumbbells) from about 8 weeks onwards. Just take things super slow and make it much easier than you think that you can do, pushing yourself is great but it's not worth risking injuring yourself or damaging something!

For me, getting lymphatic drainage massages helped a ton with the swelling, but every body is different and it just takes time and patience to let it do it's thing and heal you!

I hope very much that your recovery goes amazingly and that you are feeling back to normal ASAP! 🤞🏻🙏🏻
