Sit ups for the tum... jogging, if you like it... rowing machine (I like 'em, blast some music out or watch telly while you do it... not sure if you can do it with a busted wrist though....)... walking... generally keeping active, I guess.... how did you bust it? And does it mean you can't play guitar?

I had a wee op on my wrist in June and have been using a mag trainer (bought for £30 off Gumtree) for a couple of months now and feel a bit of strength in my legs as a result. Real cycling will be the true test, of course. Shouldn't be too long now .....just about at the end of the 'season', I reckon :ohmy:

Meanwhile, because, like you, I can't put weight on my wrist, I have to sit up, so I read a book as I pedal. Needs to be some sort of thriller, though, to keep me sufficiently interested not to notice the time. Up to about 50 mins now - and 2 books down :biggrin:.
