Ok y'all, tell me what kind of strength training y'all are doing to tone up post WLS. I had RNY 07/22/19 and need some serious advice. My biggest problem area is of course my upper arms but i'm also needing toning in my thighs and booty.

First of all, make sure you are following your doctor's orders for any kind of lifting or abdominal exercises. That is super important.

I started out by walking a minimum 10,000 steps a day, then stair climbing, working up to 20 flights a day. Then arm wall pushups, 3 sets of 50 reps (with hands in different positions.) 3 sets of pelvic tilts, 20 reps. Then an upper body routine using 3 lb. weights, alternating with 5 lbs, with 6 sets of 9 different exercises (10 reps) each. Wide and small arm circles both directions, 3 sets of 20 reps. I also do 3 sets of 9 different leg exercises (10 reps). Then 6 stretches, 3 sets of 30 seconds.

Hope this helps a little. I found the leg exercises on line. The upper body/arm exercises were from my doctor'f office. They work all the arm and chest muscles. You can probably find some good on-line ones, The upper body, leg, and pelvic tilts also work the core and abs.

i am still not doing strength training but need to start. 10 months post op and i have been doing ballroom dancing only

Thanks for the info. I started doing cardio just after 6 weeks getting 10,000-12,000 steps daily and wanted to start adding in some weights. I'm staying away from anything too core related for a few more weeks.
