Training in your 40's after having both hips replaced
I am 45 and had both hips replaced last year (June and October 2019). My father had his first hip replaced at 47, so the doctor believes my issue is genetic. I started LP in January before COVID halted my progress. I started over with LP once gyms reopened. I have worked up to a 200# squat (from 95#), 275# DL (from 135#), 175# press, and 235# bench. The Ortho said that I should do sets of 10 and squat (maybe even DL) no more than 250#. I am well aware of your thoughts and feelings on most doctors. I agree with you and see the flaws in his reasoning, but I would like some guidance as to how to proceed with my training. I have read other threads regarding training and hip replacements but see no specifics on a long-term plan of progress. I would like to make training progress for the rest of my life after having done all of the wrong things (strength coaches playing football until college and after, playing catcher in baseball, Crossfit, my own stupidity, etc.) until now. I found The Barbell Prescription helpful, but would like to get more details on a plan for those with hip replacements.
Any wisodm you can offer will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
