Why is pre-surgery exercise important?
Research shows us improving strength and blood flow to the legs pre-surgery can improve post surgery strength, mobility and function. That means it can make your recovery easier!
There is a lot of damage to your muscles post-surgery so setting yourself up for success is so important.
The exercise class not only focuses on your leg muscles, but also your arms and core. You will be using your arms to help lift you for the first few weeks after surgery due to leg pain and weakness.
Can these exercise delay or prevent my surgery?
It can. Exercise is shown to reduce inflammation and pain.
Research states sticking with a consistent exercise program that does not increase pain can be beneficial. The exercise program should be at least 6 weeks for maximal benefit, but starting at any time is better than nothing!
This exercise program is structured to improve mobility and pain with simple movements. The exercise program gets more challenging as you move through the weeks. There are modifications to all exercises if they are too difficult for you.
