workout programme



Recommended Posts

Hi All

I am now 2 months post surgery, 35kg lost.

started back in the gym and looking for ideas for work out programmes?

having spent a lot of my youth trying to lift heaviest possible weights what should I be doing now? still using the weights or all cardio?

I have never wanted to be "thin" so thinking weights will be best? any personnel trainers on here??

cheers

Steve

Do you have staff or trainers at your gym to give you advice?

Are you released to lift without restrictions? I'm finding many trainers don't have knowledge of bariatrics. But, they do have the knowledge of starting a weight lifting program. Trainers work with many people that had other types of surgery/medical issues.

I think @BigViffer can give you some ideas.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
