Already working oyt

[tholbert08 51]

I already do a boot camp called Camp Gladiator. Due to my size and a hiatal hernia there are several things I can't do. But, our one hour workouts will yield a 900+ calorie burn. Will the low calorie diet leave me in a depleted state?

If you try doing this in the first few months I doubt you will have enough energy or/and your body will go into starvation mode as you will not be taking on very many calories. I would wait till the doctor clears you for doing so.

Hi,

When was your surgery?

You should take it very easy. No intense workout at least for 8 weeks after surgery. This was the recommendation from my surgeon. If you are aiming at 900 calories burnt in one session, it will be very intense. You really need to check with your medical team if you can do that. And yes, you will be exhausted. I am 11 weeks out, east 1200-1300 calories per day and I worked out harder this week (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday)... Yesterday evening I fell asleep at 9 PM, which never happens to me. I woke up this morning completely sore and exhausted. Bottom line, I skipped the gym and now I am mad at myself for pushing too hard. Getting back in shape is a slow and long process. Take your time.

You are certainly going to be living in a huge calorie deficit on the days you do these gladiator workouts.

Only you will know how you'll feel. Sounds like you have already learned to back off and avoid the portions that cause trouble. Good practice to get in.

Being over motivated beats the heck out of the alternative in my opinion. The risk of this tendency is that injuries may occur if you don't listen to your body. All pain is not a bad thing.....but some pains are warning shots over your bow. It has taken me a while to distinguish the differences......

I've seen those gladiator workouts going on at a local park and have been curious but too shy to try.

How far out from surgery are you?

Oh....no surgery yet. I am just starting the counseling now. Hopefully December

I am hoping for December but really gonna have to push them. Cruise the end of January so tight time frame. What part of the country are you in? I love Camp Gladiator! Don't be shy to go. It is truly a family and all skillets are welcome.
