norbeex3 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I'm going to be operated on my lower stomach. Nothing too serious but I have to miss 1 month completely for recovery. I'm into training deeply and I don't want to lose my strength, endurance, stamina and my current abilities What do you think how much can I lose in one month? :roll: And how much time will it consume to get back to my current level? I just got the planche last week and what now? :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blairbob Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 Focus on recovery and the long term versus just short term. 1 month of not doing much, and probably another 2-3 to just get back into the groove. Take it easy and slow getting back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Picó García Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 i usually do 3 months of training and one month off (nothing planned, just normal life of a father who works and also study with exams so sometimes i can't go to gym) and i loose a lot of strength after one month, but after some weeks the strength returns. Specially first weeks are hard because of normal muscular pain of muscles that hasn't worked for some time, when i was able to work much harder. I think you'll loose your planche (sorry :| ) as my static holds that aren't solidified are gone after this rest period (back lever- front lever) and i need some weeks or a month of specific training for this to return to last level of hold. But that's my experience at 35 y.o., if you are younger your recovery is probably much better than mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weib Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 relax there is something called muscle memory.Many people have been on a long lay off, came back and train and gotten back in after 1-2 months where they were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbeex3 Posted August 21, 2009 Author Share Posted August 21, 2009 thank you for your answers i've heard something about muscle memory but thanks for the info. yeah... i guess it will take a couple of months to get back into shape... The good side is that my joints will have some time to heal a little BTW I'm seventeen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
