Google or YouTube will be your friend here!

Anything with treading Water or kicking will help. A pool noodle will allow for crunches and resistance exercises for your arms and legs.

Watch some Water aerobics videos and incorporate those moves into your pool exercise.

I had a personal trainer do a 12 week aquatic program with me. It was amazing. There are tons of things you can do and use. I would suggest googling it or if you can go to a few classes at a pool it would be great for learning new ideas.

I love Water aerobics! It's a way better workout than a lot of people think, and it's easier on the joints. I would take some classes at a local pool or gym and then apply what you learn in your own pool. I think the structured classes, at least for me, are good because I work out at a higher level than I do on my own. Then in between classes, I do my own water workouts and land workouts too. How wonderful that you have your own pool!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
