Don – Post Surgery Physical Training

Does anyone have a copy of their post surgery physical training exercises?

I was doing some cross training at the gym and think I need to further straighten my hip.

Hi Don, here are links to post surgical exercises similar to the ones in the packet I got at my presurgery joint class. I had a posterior THR. An add’l exercise in my packet that’s not at this link is supine bridging. Pre-surgery my PT had me doing lateral “monster” walks with a theraband, clams, and supine bridging with my lower legs on a physioball. I found those really helped keep my hip stable, together with side plank and one legged balance on a bosu. If you find the bosu one gets to be too easy close your eyes.
Exercises for Posterior THR:

Exercises for Anterior THR (appear identical to the posterior exercises, but I want to be thorough, LOL)
