    Sounds like a challenge, but I'll try for next weeks. I can figure out how to adapt the chair dips and the ab crunches where I can do them from a wheelchair...but the jumping jacks might be an issue. Good luck to y'all though.

    I wish I could do jumping jacks! My herniated discs and seriously bad knees make them really painful. I'm in for crunches and dips though, if that's ok!

    okay a chair dip.. this is what you do..



    1.Stand in front of a chair.
    Face away from the chair’s seat.

    2.Sit down on the edge of the seat and place your hands behind your hips.
    Your hands should be on the edge of the seat and shoulder width apart.

    3.Lift your buns off of the seat and walk your feet forward.
    Make sure your hands are secure on the chair so that you don’t slip off. Keep your chest elevated and head up. Your knees should not bend past your toes.

    4.Slowly lower your body downward.
    Be careful that your elbows don’t bend to an angle smaller than 90 degrees.

    5.Extend your arms, raising your body upward and supporting your weight with your arms.


    hopr I explained it well enough.. :)

    I'm in...BUT...can I replace the ab exercise with an add-on to jumping jacks, say making it 250 jumping jacks? See, i just had a small operation done 2 months ago somewhere around my lower right side abdomen. And it still hurts from time to time when I accidentally forgot and lift something heavy. Would that be okay? Also I be doing loads of house works as well as other sorts.
