Hi
Super good luck with your surgery and recovery. Yes, in MN it would be hard to do an outdoor program, but if there were an indoor track somewhere you could do it. The program is by Prevention in a book called "Walk Off Weight". It is an 8 week program building you up with resistance band excercises and stretches, core, upper body, lower body. I am enjoying it. Now I have to go quit the gym!
