Broken Radius and Ulna in an accident

[jonnybravo16]

Hi All, need some suggestion (post major surgery) workout
, I have plates in my right forearm and have been out of the gym for over a year after MTB accident. Will I ever be able to recovery fully not sure but would appreciate if anyone has had such experience.

Did your doctor clear you to weigh train?

If yes then can you perform all the major exercises without pain (even when adding a challenging amount of resistance)?

Yes ^^^make sure your doctor gives you the ok.
Not many here are medical professionals so the advise can be just speculation for the most part.

I fell and had to have nine pins and a plate put into my left ulna. It will never be 100% but with corrective therapy (and my doctor clearing me) I am just as strong as I was before I had the surgery.

That said- it depends on you, on your arm, and the extent of your own personal injury. Everyone is different. This is a conversation you need to have with your doctor- preferably an orthopedic sports medicine specialist. If you're anywhere near NY I have a good recommendation for one.
