Training After A Compound Fracture

[Anthony Traher]

Hi all,

I got myself a compound fracture roughly 7 weeks ago and have had a titanium rod inserted inside the bone with a skin graft and flap to sort out the injury. What can I do training wise since im in this condition im currently walking with the aid of crutches for balance and an air cast. What core exercises can or upper body work do you think I can do? Ill save lower body conditioning questions for my ortho and physios.

Since my ortho reckons at least 6 months before I can go back to gymnastics or trampolining I thought id try use this time to make some strength gains if possible. This being influenced by the state of my leg.

Thanks for your time.
