charlene C. Hi Charlene! and welcome :-) AS long as you've been cleared by your doctor for gentle exercise - you'll just want to take your own pace in terms of repetitions per sets - and leave out any exercises that feel too challenging or awkward to you. Simple. And keep me posted in the main members community area!! I look forward to your great success! (PS - i just had a total hip replacement 4 weeks ago... I'm feeling AMAZING!!)

Debra perfect plan :-)

That's a strong combo, Sarah-Jane!! I have a feeling there was some good burning going on 😂🔥

Claudia F. oh ok - perfect then!...

So if you feel pretty good today - what you felt a few days ago may very well have been some DOMS... delayed onset muscle soreness from proper training and your body/joints responding to the training.. and getting stronger... 

As you go forward - take the same approach - just don't force anything - and keep comfortable ranges of motion. 

It sounds to me that you're on the right track now :-) Keep me posted!!

Claudia F. First - How are things feeling today?

What you say "None of the doctors have recommended me to see an orthopedic,"... do you you mean chiropractors - or legitimate board certified physicians?

You may not need to see anyone IF... things slowly improve with this style of gentle training in the basic /beginner levels.

But if there is no improvements and you're not able to function properly daily - then yes you should be seen asap.

Great plan Martha N.! Just be sure you're not doing this every day... 2X every 7-8 days is ideal :-) What specific results and improvements are you seeing and/or feeling?

Hi Claudia F.!  

How are things feeling today?

With the issues you've had over the years - when was the last time you saw an orthopedist? ...and have you had x rays and MRIs interpreted by an ortho? 

I did see there's a 26 page pdf from the chiro... won't have time to look at it until later on - but ill say I'm not putting much weight on a 26 page report from a chiro - as, if you've already heard me mention - most of what they "diagnose" or determine is total BS. 

As we spoke about on our session... if after getting into a good gentle foundation of training - you are still having the same issues - you should see an orthopedist for proper diagnostics, etc.
