Get the bands like they sell at walmart/target....

They provide a great resistance workout for a new post-op....or pre-op even....

just look for low impact work-out via google...they help - legs lift and hold while in chair....

rubber band resistance training....

swimming (YMCA?)

yoga

Zumba

 my neighbor and I joined water aerobics.  It's fun, low strain, and a great work out.

I can't think of the woman's name but my mother and I used to do "walking workouts" where you're basically doing a whole bunch of moves while marching in place.  I have to say it was a quick, easy way to get your heart rate up and sweat some calories out!  Try googling "walking workout" or go to youtube.  I bet you can find all kinds of exercises on there!

 I believe youre thinking of Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds videos.  I have several and love mixing them up for variety. You can add hand weights and resistance bands.

Yes!  That's her!  I believe her website or another website featured some of her videos for free.  Weigh****chers also has a boxing work out video with weighted gloves that is great!
