So stressed! Need some guidance on 2 months post op exercise



Recommended Posts

Hi losers!

I need your help please.

I am 2 months post op and don't have any exercise routine.

I just want to know where you were at at 2 months and where i should be. I am foreign to the idea of exercise and don't know what is the best for me at the moment.

I would like to do something at home. Have some kind of programme to follow. Invorporate walking and cycling and perhaps exercises at home with light dumbbels.

What do you auggest? How often and length and all that?

Dont want to go the gym as yet.

Some tips and pointers i will really appreciate.

Thanks!

I bought a commercial grade elliptical off craigslist when a gym closed. I'm 2 months out. I do 30-45 minutes of intense cardio. Then I try to tone with hand weights. I suck at it though. I need to get better about the toning.

I have some old DVD's (walk away the pounds) they come in 1, 2 & 3 miles. It's a great workout. Maybe u can start with a DVD.

I joined the Y, they have tons of free classes with the membership... What inspires me are the senior citizens in the classes working their butts off. Lol.

couch to 5k, you can find the program online and do it in your neighborhood. I started it last week to help give me some focus.

I love the couch to 5k app. I also love the zumba core game on xbox. I tried jogging but was having pain in my knees and the physical therapist said no more jogging until onederland.

I have directTV and can stream YouTube on my front room flat screen. I do Tae Bo Advance, Zumba, Hip Hop workouts and 30 day shred. Regardless of my without I make sure I get 60 mins of walking in first.

I also have arm weights so I do various arm workouts during the 1st half of my walk. In addition I have a medicine ball and I log on YouTube and do a workout. The medicine ball is great for muscle building.

I try and burn 1000+ calories 6 days a week and rest my body 1 day.

      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.
