I have had my second session with the exercise physiologist.i just love it! This session was about strengthening the core and also the chest muscles,where we have had surgery.one great exercise that I love for this,is planking! You probably know it,but it's the one where you rest on your forearms and your toes,and keep your body really straight.Kind of like a push up,but you don't move.I had to start with 30 seconds,which I could only just manage.But now I am up to 1 minute and 5 seconds.Its a fun one to do with other people in the family.(try and do longer than the other person) I do it twice,and repeat it 3 times.Make sure to rest in between,for the same amount of time as you do the exercise.He also gave me an exercise where you lay on your back and lift both legs.Keeping both legs JUST off the ground,you do a pedalling motion.Great for muscles in the torso,and legs.Aim for 30 to 40 seconds,repeating 3 times,with a break in between.Not easy!!!I am not walking with hand weights any more,as he told me they really don't do a whole lot.I am riding in the morning,and walking in the evening.I have been skipping during the day,as he said that this is a really great exercise for bone density.There is so much that we can do isn't there,but I think for ladies with small children,or ladies that work ,it must be hard sometimes,to rearrange things so as they have time for themselves.Especially when treatment is over.Keep up the good work.I am trying to also.!
