I plan on doing 7.5cm femur lengthening in January 2020 with Dr Paley.I was wondering how long post-surgery I need to wait before I can return to exercises such as pull-ups,press-ups or any other upper body exercises which do not involve your legs?
Also,I will be going to college in August 2020, will I be able to walk close to normal in August or you guys recommend me to take a gap year?
I would like to get an answer from actual CLLERS.

Hi IFS!
This does help a lot.Thanks a lot for your reply.I think I was reading the older diary when I saw we need 1 year to walk properly again.Does Stryde really make a big difference in terms of recovery time? 5 months is an incredible and fast recovery!
May I ask where did you get the Bow-flex? Did you rent it or something?
