I recently had surgery on my residual limb and I find it difficult waiting till the doctor says I can get back to running. I want to keep my fitness level but am having trouble coming up with activities to do this.
I totally understand. It drives me crazy when I'm restricted from working out and I depend on my stationary bike when I can't wear my prosthesis for exercise - I use a toe clip to keep my foot on. Of course, nothing compares to running, but at least I feel like I'm doing something. I also do a lot with free weights and stretching, which I can do without wearing my prosthesis and that always helps me to feel better. I hope you heal quickly and are back to running soon.
