Most of the ones I find want you to stand on one leg, do squats, get on the floor; these are not possible for me at the moment. I am struggling to get up and down stairs at the moment and that's plenty of exercise for my currently wonky legs. My medicine ball is 4kg, if that has any bearing. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Or even just standard dumbbell exercises or a plate weight, could they be adapted? Sorry that you are struggling with legs. For upper body using dumbbells, I just do : bicep curls overhead press triceps press bent over rows All those would work with a ball? For core, I do sit ups and planks. You could probably adapt those with a ball e.g. arms from behind head with ball sit ups ball on small of back plank ? No expert though. Hopefully someone else will come along who knows? Take care. G

Got something to say?
