No, your statement was that anything other than sitting on his ass working his forearms or whatever was something he shouldn't do. Sitting on your ass letting your leg muscles atrophy, waiting for surgery that might be 6 months or a year into the future is literally the worst thing you could do for your prognosis. He already went to see his doctor, and most orthopaedic surgeons do not know enough about rehabilitation.
I agree that he should let a healthcare professional guide him, which I've stated many times over already. He should go see a physiotherapist, and hopefully someone who actually knows what they are talking about which is sadly not the case in this thread. I do this for a living and I know what I am talking about.
