Discuss with: Your surgeon, you don't say how long ago the repair was which may make a difference in the answer.

Ask your surgeon: Varied rehab protocols, all that may be correct, exist between different surgeons. Generally early on, range of motion through a limited arc and isometric strengthening, followed by gradual progressive conditioning and strengthening and avoidance of forceful training for an extended period of time.

Physical Therapy: I suggest you be under the care of a orthopedist or sports rehab clinic. Achilles ruptures are difficult to rehab. You need professional care.
