![]() | Has anybody here gone through this procedure or had a training partner go through the experience? Are there any pro-fighters that have had this happen? Any information that can be shared would be greatly appreciated. |

![]() | Most physicians will not give a definitive answer since it is too hard to predict. I would say 6-8 wks after surgery you should be at 50%. That being said, you really have to listen to your body. Try and build up to your prior regimen and be realistic about getting back to your pre-operative form. As far as risk of reinjury, anytime you have this type of injury you are always at a greater risk than the average person. Everything in moderation |

![]() | So if I take it slow, will I be able to bridge without ripping open? Can I swing a kettlebell without needing surgery? Squats? Deadlifts? Can I take a punch to the stomach without being in serious trouble? I can accept a slow recovery, and I am good at listening to my body and respecting pain as a warning. I'm just wondering if I am fooling myself by even entertaining the thought of keeping this type of training as a hobby. |

![]() | Haha...you ask some great questions! Unfortunately, there is no way in predicting what you will or will not be able to do. My suggestions: - focus on stretching - fine core movements initially versus big power movements - progress predictably yet aggressively - listen to your body - remember to rest! fozzy40 |
