I'm a runner and for the past month I've had to be non-weight bearing. I have a stress fracture in my left tibia. I'm worried I've lost all of my stamina and started to gain some weight.
I've been doing core workouts, but im struggling to find motivation to do them everyday.
Does anyone have any leg/full body workouts that i could do without putting stress on my leg?

    weight machines, stationary bike

    eating at a deficit will control weight gain.

    Rest and recover and don't worry about your stamina. You can gain that back :)

    I would also recommend you set your goal here to maintain weight with a Sedentary activity level. Log your exercise, and eat 50%-75% of the calories back to allow for overestimations for burns. Your body needs those calories to heal.

    Best wishes <3
