Push through the pain barrier

By Renee Simard - 18/09/2021 23:00

Today, despite being unable to stand for more than a few minutes at a time or walk farther than a few hundred feet, the doctor told me to begin doing 30 minutes of non-stop exercise everyday. He literally said, “Don’t stop for 30 minutes everyday.” FML

You don't have to stand to exercise (crunches, bike...)

water is great for low impact exercise, so if you don't have access to s bike try to get to a pool. also with this the Internet and physical therapists are your friend

There are great chair exercises videos on the Net. Also, Pilates.

Just start doing upper body exercises and free weights. Do what you can and push yourself without getting injured. You will find plenty of such exercises on youtube, something suitable for extreme over weight people should do fine as normally they don't give them leg/back heavy exercises.

"Please repeat back to me what I said, so I know you heard me." Is often a good sentence, OP. And if they refusing, asking for a patient advocate is a good idea.
