[KiloKAHN]

As someone with a lot of mass, I'll say that bulky legs probably made the lengthening a lot more painful, and it seems to be the case with others that have a lot of leg muscle. Two doctors I spoke with said more muscle would make you have better blood supply and help with healing in the end however, but I haven't quite got to that point yet. It's a good idea to work on your upper body strength though. I'd do dumbbell flyes for chest and a lot of tricep pushdowns. It will help when pulling yourself up onto your walker.

Have you lost much muscle during lengthening, Kilokahn?

Have you lost much muscle during lengthening, Kilokahn?

A whole lot, primarily in my quads. A lot of my physio exercises are focusing on that now because I lost so much quad strength that it's become a lot harder to do leg extensions.
