Can you train with heavy weights after limb lengthening surgery?

[geneticwaste1]

I am a powerlifter and a manlet and i am interested in LL surgery. Could you do heavy squats and deadlifts after LL?

 

[robert3]

yeah it grows back completely but it'll probably fuck your lifts if your doing it competitively

after it heals completely sure

 

[TechnoBoss]

Those lifts in particular will probably be the most affected by LL surgery. I've heard people say that squatting below parallel will be very difficult if not impossible to do after LL.

I also looked at a study where the lengthened limb of patients were considerably weaker and many had developed arthritis in the long term. So this surgery might not be good for an athlete. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8231406/
