I had 2 ADR CERVICAL done by Dr. Clavel, I'm female so probably don't lift as much as you but I can now deadlift 65lbs over my head. I'm doing Crossfit 3-5 times a week. The only thing I don't do a lot of is running, it bothers me more than any other activity. I do a mile and that's about it. If I do a 5k, I run and walk.
I started out barely lifting 5 lbs my nerves had been so compressed.... even now 4+ years after surgery there is not a day that goes by that I don't stop and say a little Thank you for Dr. Clavel.

When I talk about weightlifting, I mean like 50 lb dumbbells. Nothing crazy. It makes me crazy to think I couldn't do that again.
