Typically, cardiovascular physical therapy is recommended post CABG surgery. Please consult with your surgeon for further recommendations.

Most people go through 3 months of cardiac rehab where they slowly work their endurance back up. You should check with your surgical team and rehab team as to when it is safe for you to return to the gym and what you can do in terms of more strenuous exercise.
