It's 3 weeks tomorrow since my op and I did my first spin (cycle) class today.

I took it easier than normal but was pleasantly surprised with what I could do. The most uncomfortable part was turning the dial to change the resistance.

During the last track I had to slow down a little as there was a lot of climbing and I was getting out of breath.

I've also started doing some light weights at home this week. Just 2kg bicep curls and tricep push backs.

So excited to be back at gym, I feel normal again.

    Hi Daina

    Yes I did thank you. I haven't tried the DVD yet cos until I read your message I'd actually forgotten about it. When I got it I wasn't ready to do much and put it in the DVD cabinet. So thanks for the reminder and I'll give it a go tomorrow

    Thanks. Heather
