THE IMPORTANCE OF STRENGTH & CONDITIONING BEFORE AND AFTER SURGERY
Often when someone has orthopaedic surgery planned, they will have been told that they need to strength train before surgery. This is common for knee surgery, including a knee replacement, ACL reconstruction or meniscal surgery. These surgeries may be required for numerous reasons including sports injuries, arthritis, avascular necrosis and more.
I have written a guest blog for orthopaedic surgeon, Mr Vipin Asopa, in where I explain more about strength and conditioning before and after surgery. You can read the blog on Mr Asopa's website here:
