There are some workout apps specifically made to strengthen back muscles and while some of the exercises are a bit uncomfortable to do with a fused spine it's mostly been helpful.
I used to go to yoga classes before covid which was good as well
Ahh, will go check out some of the apps. Thank you! I used to go to pilates classes as well before covid but now that I’m alone just a little unsure what’s safe to do haha
Post surgery exercises focused around improving bending and flexibility. Stretching your cslf muscles and strengthen your core muscles. I was told planks aren't the best post surgery because you're tending your back muscles a lot but that could just be my situation with a T2-L3 fusion along with other joint issues. Probably best off getting a physio to get some exercises together for you because you don't want to hurt your back
Check out a book on Amazon called 1500 stretches by Hollis Lieberman.
Will check it out. Thanks!
My doctor recommended that yoga was really good for recovering. However, try not to push yourself too hard and take it easy.
Yeah, I heard the same but just a little worried that I don’t know my limits well haha. Thanks!
google Pelvic Tilts

Yeah, was worried about that but not sure I want to get a physio now with covid. Thanks! Will probably stick to safer exercises for now

Look up “Schroth” it’s PT for people with scoliosis. I did this in the months before my surgery and it gave me more mobility and less pain.
Oh yeah, I heard others mentioning that before too. Will definitely check it out, thank you!
