Are you working with a client who's returning to exercise after a hip replacement? Let's explore how RxBot can help you design a safe, effective program for their gradual return to full activity.
Client Scenario: Post-Hip Replacement Recovery
Our client is in the post-rehabilitation phase following a hip replacement. They're ready to return to regular exercise but need a program that balances strength training, motor control improvement, and low-impact aerobic work to support their recovery.
Coach Inputs
Here's what we told RxBot:
Training days: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday
Program duration: 4 weeks, starting August 19, 2024
Goals: Improve motor control, build strength, improve aerobic base
Special considerations: Post-hip replacement rehabilitation, gradual return to full activity
Schedule: Resistance training on Monday, Thursday, Saturday; Aerobic work on Tuesday.
RxBot In Action
We prompted RxBot with the following:
"Create a 4-week program beginning August 19, 2024, targeting strength building and developing a powerlifting-specific program focusing on the squat, bench press, and deadlift. Ensure that compound lifts are on separate days. Tailor the program for a powerlifter aiming to improve their lifts in competition."
RxBot's Program Summary
RxBot designed a program tailored for our post-hip replacement client:
"This four-week program is designed for a client returning to exercise post-hip replacement. Emphasizing motor control and strength building through resistance training on Monday, Thursday, and Saturday, combined with low-impact aerobic work on Tuesday, helps improve aerobic base and supports recovery. Each workout progresses in intensity and complexity while catering specifically to the client's rehabilitation needs and priorities, focusing on single-arm push exercises, upper body mobility, and core stability."
