In a couple weeks I go back for my second post-op checkup. I was given some back exercises to do but I haven't been doing them, so today I decided to start a simple workout. I use my Weider Total Body Works 5000. It is like a Total Gym that you see on TV except cheaper. I like how it can stretch me out and you have to use your abs and back muscles to keep yourself upright while doing the exercises. Upper body exercises are fairly easy to do, but lower body exercises seem limited. If I can keep it up my back should get stronger and hopefully make my daily activities easier and prevent future injuries. |
