10 minutes cool down on bike -50cal, then stretches.
only doing cardio till I feel able to incorporate weights
Intersted on what you all up to also
Do you have a YMCA near by? I do aquacise 3Xper week for 1 hour then swim laps for 30 mins after the class...we use aqua barbells for strength and we do cardio as well. Then 3 days a week I walk at least 3 miles sometimes as much as 5miles if I have time and energy after working all day. I usually take Sunday off unless its a really nice day then I walk or do something else outside. We just opened our pool last weekend so Im looking forward to that. I love the water. I think I was a fish in a former life! Swimming burns lots of calories (look on fitness pal) and the resistance from the water builds strength. I know I "feel the burn". The best part is the classes are fun...doesn't feel like so much work.
I started 1/2 marathon training. So I run 5x a week, then 3 days I also do core and upper body training. I try to take 2 days off a week (Tues & Thurs).

Hello. I'm 17 months post-op. I started walking/running on the treadmill for 30min/5days a wk at 3 months post-op. I did only the treadmill for nine months straight. Now I work out approx 7 hours/wk doing cardio kickboxing, zumba, and a strength-n-stretch class. I take Friday and Sunday off.
