- My Workout Routine Post DOUBLE MASTECTOMY (0-6 weeks). I documented my workouts after my surgery and this video provides a breakdown of what I did week by week. These exercises were in addition to my daily rehab exercises.
I was cautious and ensured that all exercises were pain-free, with no pulling at my incision sites, no redness/swelling and no activation of my chest muscles for the first number of weeks.

For the workouts 7-12 weeks post-double mastectomy - ruclips.net/video/OCvYl-llJ0o/видео.html
Thanks for these videos. I'm starting week 3 post surgery but i still have a lymphocele so not allow to move my Right arm. I will start strength with left biceps /triceps
Thank you so much for posting this!
I'm very active too and now that I'm one week post double mastectomy, I was really having trouble finding anything online to guide my gradual return back to vigorous exercise. Keep up the great work. :)
Same. Her videos really help guide me. I am 1 month post bilateral mastectomy today
I knew there would be other active women curious about exercise post-mastectomy! Hope your recovery and the rest of your treatment go well.
Thank you so much!! I have been going crazy trying to figure out how much is too much, I am 10 days post double mastectomy with expanders and you just made my day!
That's awesome!! This video is exactly what I was looking for at your stage after surgery.
@@breast-cancer-rehab Exactly!! Again, thank you, I have been in such a funk and am generally a super positive person, you've motivated me to tuck my drains in and go back to the gym this morning even if it's just to sit on the bike and do some shoulder rolls! I love knowing you are a chiro as well! Thanks again for all the great info!
Thank you for this!!
wow - super helpful! Thank you so much!
You're very welcome!
Wow! Very impressive! I'm 13 days out dmx. My node arm has shooting pain to my wrist. Im trying to exercise it, but my surgeon didnt give me any exercises!
Search for the video rehab exercises 0-3 weeks after surgery and start there. There’s 2 more videos after that. If you have the resources getting some hands-on treatment will help too. All the best with your recovery!
Hi Erica. Thanks for the video.
Just wanted to know about the amount of lymph nodes that you got removed?
I basically had all the lymph nodes removed, I exercise but still very concerned about lymphedema
I had 3 lymph nodes removed. I had lymphedema start 3 months after I was done radiation. I’m going to do a bunch of videos coming up on lymphedema as it’s so common. I think exercise was one of the things that helped me the most to address it. Advice in the past used to be avoid exercise but now it’s recommended. Check with your surgeon for specific advice for your case.
I’m not seeing any drain tubes so I’m not sure how u can go through any of these exercises.
I took a lot of the exercise videos after the fact so that's why you don't see my drains. I never planned on making a RUclips channel to share all of this information. My drains were in for 6 days. The exercises were definitely more uncomfortable that first week because of the drains, but not enough to prevent me from doing them!
@@breast-cancer-rehab I have done some exercises but the result was my drain tubes started filling up more
Always important self-assess to listen to your body!
26 days mastectomy surgery lympy nodes
What exercise i need
Start with the rehab exercises 0-3 weeks and progress from there (0-6 weeks, 6+ weeks). Check with your medical team for any specific recommendations in your case.
