Hemicolectomy

Medical Q&A [Moderated]

Hey Docs!

I just wanted to say thank you for the great programs you provide.

I have a hemicolectomy due to Crohn’s coming up next week at Guy’s in London and have been on your programs for at least a year (I came to the Seattle seminar also).

I’m currently on Week 6 of the Bridge 3.0 and feeling good leading up to the op (despite being on liquid Modulen for 6 weeks).

I was thinking of practicing the movements post-op and training properly after getting surgical clearance. Afterwards maybe doing the beginner program starting from week 3-or maybe the powerbuilding program?

Would you have any preference?

Thanks

James

James,

Thanks for the post, the kind words, and good to hear from you!

After your procedure I would probably do the beginner template from phase 2 forward, as I’m predicting there will be a good amount of time off from actual training post op. So, I’d recommend starting there and then move forward from there!

Keep us posted!

Ok thanks Dr J!

Enjoy London when you come.

As well as a Physical Culture a new place just opened called ‘Built Differently’ which Rachel (who went to your New York seminar) told me about.

All the best!

James
