broken foot

I recently broke the 5th metatarsal on my right foot in 3 places. I will have to wear an air cast for 8 weeks. Any cardio exercises that anyone can recommend to do with little to no impact to my foot? Ugh...
Thanks much,

Did you talk to the podiatrist or whomever set your foot?
I couldnt do ANYTHING for a few weeks when I fractured my mine. Then I could do some slow biking on the stationary bike. I did a lot of crunches, boxing moves like jabs and uppercuts, and upper body stuff.0 -
I broke the 3rd Metatarsal last week. I admit I am not following dr's orders, but as soon as it felt okay to limp on I have. Just moving helps a lot while you're healing.
Try swimming as well. That should work.0
