Getting Back into Weightlifting After an Injury

Injuries can be a real setback for anyone who is dedicated to their fitness routine. Whether it’s a minor muscle pull or a major surgery, easing back into weightlifting can be a challenging process. At Prescription Fitness, we believe that the key to a successful recovery is taking it slow and modifying your routine as needed.

Here are some tips to help you ease back into weightlifting after an injury:
• Start slow: Begin with lighter weights and focus on proper form to avoid further injury.
• Listen to your body: If you experience pain or discomfort, don’t push through it. Take a break and modify your routine accordingly.
• Work with a professional: If you have had a major injury or surgery, work with a physical therapist or doctor to determine any restrictions or recommendations for your recovery.
