travelsafar as others have said your body needs time to heal. Exercise can begin again once you feel well enough. I only started exercising in January 2018 aged 59 at the time. Must admit I love it. But I don't go to a gym. Since moving I joined a sit fit class but it closed due to Covid.The class I am in is called active ageing .
Once you feel up to it you will get back to it but gently and build up. Our instructor always says people forget to exercise their neck.
Here's a gentle exercise she says every one should do. Sit up straight ,look forward and turn your head to the side slowly back to centre and turn to the other side and back to the centre. Do this 10 times .
The other neck one is up straight again face forward slowly turn your head and look at your pocket slowly look up back to the centre and turn to the other side and look at your pocket and back to centre do it 10 times.
She says we carry a lot of tense in our necks. People warm everything up but forget their necks.
Once you feel well enough you will need to slowly build your strength up. And don't think exercise has to been fast it doesn't. You can work just as hard doing gentle exercises and using a resist band.
When I started class we where given a green resist band after 8 weeks we now have a pink one. Some of our exercises are sitting down and holding on to the back of the chair plus walking exercises . The class is to build strength and stability.
Hope you are feeling better soon.
