After a total knee replacement on one knee will there be a weight restiction on how much you can lift?

Lift Restrictions: Hello. How old is your TKA (total knee arthroplasty)? If it is "not too fresh",(less than a year) then your TKA should be pretty solid and stable for lifting. Are you concerned about squats, dead lifts, etc. affecting your TKA?
