@klaubi Just lower body exercises

@klaubi My first thought was water of course. There are other exercises you can do in the pool that are low-impact. I do not swim, I hate to put my head under, plus I wear hearing aids, so I water-jog. The advantage of doing that with my hearing aids in is that I can stream music to them from my phone. Not only does it make time pass faster but I vary my speed to match the music! There are bluetooth ear pods too.
I also do a recumbent bike because that too is low-impact, and of course the elliptical is low-impact but that may be too strenuous for your ribs. Maybe you could check with your doctor and see if you wrapped your mid-section you could do those.
If you find out any others I would like to know myself. With two knee replacements I try to keep low-impact.

Hi @klaubi - So sorry to hear about your fractured ribs. It must be terribly painful. Here is an article that might be helpful. Basically, they say low impact cardio (like slow bike riding, slow walking), deep breathing (helps prevent collapsed lung), and stretching (like gentle yoga). Are you currently doing any physical therapy? Best of luck in healing.
