Leaving out the debate on the benefits of weight training, does anyone know about or have experience with lifting weights, or lower body strength work while recovering from a metatarsal stress fracture? Is this OK to do? any specific kind of strength work I should avoid?
Thanks!
You can likely do some leg extensions or leg curls, but avoid lunges, squats, or presses/sleds. No calf raises either.

I was hoping you would see this and respond. Thanks very much for this. That's what I will do. I should say I am wearing a boot at all times. 3rd metatarsal, 10 days out from the break and the break is clean.
