Gym,

Okay so I finally decided to join a gym to work my heart out more. Question for you, I've been doing weights over my head and was told I shouldn't due to possibly pulling out my leads.
Thanks
Wendy

As long as it's been more than 6 weeks, your dr has cleared you for full activity, and it doesn't feel bad when you do it, you should be able to do anything you want. I do weights, often overhead, most days of the week.

See my post above in reply to the guy asking about Crossfit, there is a full explanation there of why you will not pull a lead.

You know you're wired when...

Your signature looks like an EKG.
