I'm 3 months post op and starting to get into more intense exercise, such as weight lifting and endurance training. I'm curious when everyone started with upping the intensity. I'm slightly frustrated with my progress. I'm fatiguing faster than I think I should be. It's probably normal but any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I did nothing but walk for 2 yrs. I started Pilates's about 2 months ago. Saw great improvement until the lockdown.

I started back with strength training and cardio 3 months after my surgery. I too was easily tired. I realized that I had to be more stringent with my Protein to feed my muscles than ever before. I was so tired that I started skipping workouts. 6 months later, my body pulled from my muscles for the protein it needed. I lost weight like crazy, but I lost all of my muscle tone. I realized I wasn't drinking enough protein. So now, everything I eat and drink everything has a high protein count. If I am not hungry, I sip slowly from a Protein Drink. Isopure Isolated whey and Gold Standard Protein Whey are my favs! I still drink a protein drink mixed with black coffee for Breakfast and a drink in the afternoon mixed with black Okios Zero vanilla yogurt. My goal each day is to have a drink @ 50 grams each twice per day. This should help with fatigue during your workouts. Try a pre-workout powder for energy. Good luck!
