I've been told that I need to get into the best possible aerobic condition before surgery, and I'm curious what others have done.
I'm currently doing 45 minutes on an elliptical trainer 3 times a week, and 30 minutes of swimming 3 times a week. I can't walk any distance without pain due to a pinched nerve at L5 that sends intolerable pain down my left leg.
How fit do I need to be? Am I doing enough?
Surgery is, I hope, more than a year out.
