appendix out (no training for me ) cycle advice - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Benny Bi's · 23-11-2005, 10:30 PM

Hi guys,
I'm after a little advice. I have just got back into my training again after a 5 1/2 week break due to having my appendix out. It was the most frustrating 5 weeks of my life, cabbaging on the sofa watching trisha (cant believe i just admitted to that). Anyway as i said i have just gone back to the gym and do seem to have lost quite a bit of strenght. I have also dropped nearly a stone in weight which i'm really peeeeeeed off about. (down to 14"3 from 15"2). Also aching like hell from my last 2 training sessions due to the big break i've had.
In total from my last steroid cycle it has been 8 weeks. In your experience would you advise me to ease back in to the gym for a few weeks then start my course or could i get straight back on a course and hopefully find that strenght i once had ?

Look forward to your replies.

Mate I was really rough after I had mine out, tbh it took me 6 months to get back into things, (sorry I know its not what you want to hear), my appendix was gangrenous and they had to have a really good scoop around in there.

You have got to give that area time to fully heal up before you start going squats or deadlifts etc else your asking for trouble. I really wouldn't start a cycle now, stay light and just go for the pump with a view to maintaining not gaining. Just try and stay the same for a few months and maybe up the cardio and lean right out..

Had mine out in January, took 6 weeks off then started light and worked back up until strength was back to normal, then hit a cycle.

Didn't have any problems at all, just be carefull.
