Hello im finally getting my plate out. In the netherlands were allowed to train outside so im with a gym that does outside training (only bagwork) Next week im getting my plate out. How long should I wait before I go back to bagwork? I can also do privates once a week on my budget which im thinking of doing before I go back to the gym. Doctor said 4-6 weeks but that sounds a bit optimistic. Should I break it down to when I can shadowbox? When I can do light padwork? When I can hit the bag again? I dont think full contact sparring and stuff is gonna happen for at least 6 months seeing coronasituation here. I dont wanna rush back to quick. I went back a bit early before and it slowed healing down i think.
sorry - i am confused - what sort of plate? out from where? Removed in what manner? Regardless, hope it all goes well for you.
I'd use what the surgeon said to you as a bare minimum, you want to incrementally add force to your training, and take each stage slowly, at least 4 weeks between stages.
