Finally... a great workout today!
I'm about 3 1/2 months out and have been having a lot of challenges with exercise, partly due to having really low energy and motivation, and partly due to physical health issues (arthritis and orthopedic problems). I've been doing aquafit and a bit of biking, but what I've really been wanting is to use the elliptical trainer and weights that are collecting dust in my spare room.
Today I finally did it. I spent 15 minutes (not a long time, but I'm pleased anyways) on the elliptical, and my foot seems to have held up under the pressure. Then I spent 25 minutes doing some weights. It reminded me of a time many many years ago when I worked out on a regular basis. I haven't felt this good in ages! I'm hoping to manage to do this several times a week now, and to gradually increase the cardio time and the amount and reps on the weights. Just wanted to share a little success...
