Looking for a few post-op training tips...
I'm 9-weeks out, and got the green light from my cardiologist to get back to life...I'm fighting to get back into shape - I dropped about 45lbs before the surgery, and 25 following...still got some work to do, but now that I'm mechanical I can't exactly throw down salads at the rate I used to...and, I'm looking to redirect my focus from size/ strength to cardio/ fitness..
I'm going through a rehab program, more for the education side...the excercise program isn't pushing me at all - I'm only 31, and not in that bad a shape for my weight...I'm back on the treadmill walking/ light jogging...tossing a baseball, and shooting a basketball...
I'm looking to turn things up a bit to start burning calories and work down to my 'healthy weight'...I've never been much of a runner, but I've set my first goal at a 5k, maybe 10k next spring...
If anybody can help out w/ training programs or advice for a guy in need of some help during a transition phase in life...it would be greatly appreciated...
