Weightlifting is a great example of strength and perseverance, as it is important to pay attention to technique as well as your body. When dealing with injury, the recovery process can be a trying time due to modified training techniques that you may have to implement prior to returning to full strength. Hear from these weightlifters and see how they were able to get back to lifting.

"After a delicate three hour surgery my fingers and hand are back to normal. I can't say enough good things about the great care I received at HSS from not only the wonderful doctors but also the nurses, aides, the pre surgical staff and physical therapists who helped me on my road to recovery and a pain free life."

"I had my procedure on March 3rd, 2014 and went back to very mild weight lifting after about 6 weeks and then returned to a modified training schedule after 12 weeks. I then continued to train while "listening to my body" and returned to full strength in about 5 or 6 months. Again, paying careful attention to technique and my body. I am extremely grateful to be able to continue to train and expect to go back to competing in the very near future."
