Hey everyone,
I had to get abdominal surgery last week and am looking at doing some simple, non strenuous exercises and working my way back to a full routine. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can start off with? My routines tend to be a little intense (marathon training (4x/week) with weights 2x/week), so starting off gently doesn't seem to compute with my mind. My Dr. says I can start gently the beginning of next week and work my way up.
thanks in advance, J.

I'm surprised your Dr. didn't recommend what exercises you could do, especially since you had ab surgery and that effects your whole core.

The one thing I would do is to just start with walking, just to get back into the flow.

Since I am not sure how major the surgery was, I doubt anyone here could recommend anything.
