Alternative excercise techniques and regimes?

About two years ago, I had internal abdominal surgery which has left me with a lot of scarring. This has meant an end to contact sports and acitivities that I used to enjoy so much before my op.

I did try lifting heavy weights like I used to but I began getting pain inside my stomach due to the excercise. I have quite a lot of excess weight that I need to shift, and find that weight training is the only form of excercise that helps me shed weight.

Are there any alternatives to weight training, or can I modify the training somehow so I can prevent the pain. I really need to get back into shape because I have lost a lot of muscle tone.

low weight and high reps should help, or learning new techniques where you use just your own bodyweight, pullups, pushups, things like that are things that mixed martial arts and military swear by and they work, go for reps, youll see a drop in weight and more tone

I am a believer in the Leslie Sansone system (Walk away the Pounds) it is a low-impact workout system. Depending on the one you purchase, it comes with weighted balls, or other various equipment. I have been working out for many years, and she still to this day kicks my butt.

Another exercise is to swim, or walk in the water. Much cooler, especially during the summer!!
Hope this helped.

If you want to start back weight training you need to start at square one.....light weights. If it hurts, leave ab work out of your routine for now and long walks, swimming, dancing...any cardio will help tone and burn off the fat. Hang in there pal!!!!

Spinning and yoga
