Tips for keeping fit while leg is in a cast???

Postby Nan » Sat Jun 25, 2011 7:42 pm

Hi Missies,
Well last week I informed ye of how I broke a bone in my foot, but now I',m looking for advice on how to keep fit while I'm in the cast for the next few weeks.
I've been doing my sit ups and using light dungbells for my arms and using the crutches is great for my arms too, but I'm looking for anymore tips for the lower half, all advice welcome :D

O Im not too sure... could you do some floor exercises.. maybe the bicycle, lying on the floor... or that one where you ly on the floor, keep your feet together, legs straight and raise them up and down without touching the floor... its killer!
