Torn pectoral major

[LiftingComplex]

So I tore my pectoral major about 2 months ago, i had surgery on it a week after. I was just about to start up my first cycle and now its sitting in my closet waiting for me to heal. My question is, if I've already had the surgery on a full blown tear, and I'm on track to a full recovery, would taking my roids help the tear repair faster. I'm 50/50 on it because the tear is right at the muscle and the tendon, the sutures in the muscle tearing is my main concern but i wouldnt be working my chest for another month or so into the cycle. Any opinions or facts would be greatly appreciated.

What does your surgeon say? No one can answer that question better than the person who physically looked at and repaired the tear.

I have to believe that a cycle at this point in your recovery is too soon. I have also torn my pec, partial tear of the clavicular head of my pec major from the sternum. Being that my tear was from the sternal side my surgeon gave me the choice of surgery or rehab. My wife is a PT so we did therapy for 2 months and now I am back to training. My pec is slightly deformed but only myself and my wife can see it. I was very lucky that it wasn't a full pec major tear from the sternal side. Good luck with your recovery.
