Any youtube strength training favorites?



Recommended Posts

Hello guys. I'm 3 months post VSG and really want to incorporate some strength training into my life 2-3 days per week. I've been walking since surgery and have increased briskness and length of walks. I've also started back riding my bicycle. I enjoy being outdoors so the walking/biking are great for me. I feel I've got my cardio covered. I do not care to join a gym, but I know I need to start some strength training. I would be a total newbie.

Can anyone recommend either some youtube videos, or dvds, or Amazon videos or anything. I don't know where to begin and I don't want to injure myself. I would prefer something I can do at home without special equipment, except maybe some resistance bands or something like that. Yoga appeals to me.... would that strengthen and tone muscles? Any suggestions for the uncoordinated, clumsy beginner type?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
