Is Stretching The Front & Middle Splits Safe After Hip Surgery?

[@LarsRyeJeppesen]

Had 2 hip surgeries, absolutely doing middle/front splits

[@UnityGymOnline]

If you follow this advice you can still train for the middles and fronts safely

[@LarsRyeJeppesen]

@@UnityGymOnline yep thx

Love this video! I had my hips replaced at age 22. I'm now 42 & need to reestablish my flexibility after 5+ years of serious illness. My flexibility has always bern a top priority & im sure going into a long illness with going flexibility is why I can still bounce back after long hospitalizations with next to zero mobility. This is definitely staying in my regular regime.

nice work Nila, you got this!

I had surgery 6 weeks ago on my neck, low back, right hip, and pubic bone. I’ve started back slowly stretching. Thanks for this.

[@UnityGymOnline]

you're welcome! Strength training is the priority for you right now, stretching can be dangerous so early post operation. Good luck with the recovery :)

[@romansokolov4589]

Thanks for sharing this knowledge, but this is a lot of work

[@UnityGymOnline]

Well that really depends. 40 minutes at the gym, 3 times a week will get this done. Is that much work for living a pain free life worth it? I'd argue it's more work not doing that. It's hard work being in pain and discomfort all the time

[@LOVEHandMade2013]

This looks great!. Going to try today.

[@UnityGymOnline]

brilliant!

Hi. I followed your advice and tips also did the exercises for the hips as I had a hip resurfacing operation done couple of years back and it helped me a lot. Got Lil bit more flexible and I do the stretching exercises 3x a week. Just wanna give a BIG THANX For your efforts and help with all the advice and tips very much appreciated 👊💥

[@UnityGymOnline]

Great to hear! I'm so happy that my videos are helping you. Thanks for sharing your experience :)

[@wealthworkout9254]

Great video as usual.

[@UnityGymOnline]

Thank you

[@antoniomachado7413]

Thanks for the lesson. Just wondering, have you had hip replacement?

[@UnityGymOnline]

No, but I coach people who have

[@elizabethdixmitchell]

In this video, have you had hip replacement, which hip and how long ago since this video? I’m 8 week post op and not able to do this yet.

[@UnityGymOnline]

No I haven't. But I've coached people who have had hip replacements. They were training with me one week after surgery. I don't recommend getting workout advice from KZbin. I write custom programs for people after they've had surgery. And strength training is much more important than flexibility. Come and join my online personal training. It's only $1.75/day which is an invaluable investment if you want to regain your strength and flexibility. Check ot out unitygym.com

What about pins in both hips

[@UnityGymOnline]

you'd want to be very careful with that. I can't comment really because I haven't dealt with that myself and I'm not a medical professional.

[@Hikmetkarademir]

How long after hip arthroscopy can I do these streches?

[@UnityGymOnline]

I'm not sure, I'd check with a physical therapist.

[@Hikmetkarademir]

@@UnityGymOnline thank you very much for the answer.

[@UnityGymOnline]

@@Hikmetkarademir my pleasure

[@joannejoaquin173]

When you say surgery, do you mean total hip replacement?

[@UnityGymOnline]

Yes, any kind of hip surgery. We have a 68 year old leading trauma surgeon in the USA working with us post hip replacement surgery :)
