Hi guys!!! I injured my foot last weekend. I can't spend five weeks not doing anything. Any suggestions on exercise? Could really use your help.

    Upper body exercises? If you go to a gym then there's lots of stuff there to use for upper body workouts.. I have 2 females at my gym with injured foot/leg (with cast and brace) and they're still rocking the weight room. :)

    The ARC (elliptical) like, but the foot stays flat) worked for me, but I had an air-cast for extra protection though.

    Awesome! I will give this a try. I have a new boot now, more stable. I can already feel the difference. Thanks for sharing!!!!
