Hi for those who had done ll, do you think doing stretching exercise prior to the surgery helps?
Do you constantly do stretching exercise before your surgery?

No, they dont.
Only during LL will help.
No respectable doctor says otherwise.

I agree. I did not do much stretching before LL, and I was not that flexible either. I am at 7cm on my femurs right now with no problems. The key is lots of PT during lengthening.

Could be, but I think if you imagine those professional gymnasts that are flexible and can do splits with no problems were to do LL, I think it would be a walk in the park for them (or the closest thing one can be to that in a procedure as invasive as LL). You'd have to worry less about PT during LL maybe

So do you do any preparation prior to the surgery other than money? Haha

Definitely. I'd recommend being flexible. Try making the palms of your hands touch the floor without bending your knees before you go to the operation room.

Lmao, I still think theyd have a waay easier time than someone that doesnt practice those excercises. Well, if you can walk, jog, and run properly pre and post LL id call the surgery a success.
