Just had my appendix removed via keyhole surgery (I type this from my hospital bed!) and wondering when I can get back into training (assuming no complications and due to get released tomorrow post having 3 antibiotics via IV).
Plan was no ‘lifting’ for say 2 weeks and then dial it back up but how much and by when? Is there anything I can do damage to internally by going to hard too early (no external stitches as was keyhole).
been lifting for 10 years, 40 years old, desk job, 3 young kids. Bw 98kgs. Just tested 3rm on main lifts - Deads 185 x 3, squats 160 x 3, bench 120 x 3 with more in the tank. Been making good progress of late so want to be sensible but am guessing conventional medical advice will be overly conservative for a relatively ‘trained’ individual.
Thks!
