common recovery theme

Something I've noticed reading the posts lately that it seems as though it's very important to take your recovery slow...I think alot of times we push ourselves after surgery and try to get better faster when we should really just let stuff heal. I think you have the right idea Copdaddy, take it slow. I went back to my work out classes and only use 3 lb wieghts with my brace on, if something doesn't feel right I stop doing it and try a different excercise. I also do Adams streaches when I can. But even months later I still watch what I try to do and pick up. The doctor told me to take it easy for a year so that's what I am going to try to do.
Hope this made sense to y'all.
Take it easy,
