HI, my name is Heather and I am trying to get healthy and fit for this summer. However there is something wrong with my left leg and I cant use it much or it gives out. They think I have Fibromyagia but I'm hoping thats not the case. Does anyone have any ideas or thoughts for a hard core workout that does not involved using your legs a lot??? I really need help.

if you have access to a pool, you can get great workouts there. This will take the weight off the legs. you should do this with a trainer or physical therapist though so you don't injure yourself further.

Absolutely agree with @cal7 water aerobics is surprisingly a really effective & awesome workout.

Be sure your Dr clears you for whatever you try... he may even have some suggestions of activities his other patients are doing.

Hope you are feeling better soon!
