What exercises/workouts should be done to prepare for hip replacement surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What you need is to-: -have strong ABductors of the hip as well as stretching the flexors and extensors of the hip. This is not something you can do in a short time. A proper exercise routine must be set up for your needs & abilities, & it takes months to do this. If your surgery is soon, nothing will make this happen rapidly.
