A member asked:

Been on bed rest since june flat on back. no getting up. should i start with exercises laying down first for few weeks then walking?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Low intensity.: You don't necessarily need to start exercising in bed, but you should start really slow. Walking. Light weights. Preferably under the supervision of a physical therapist, especially in the beginning.
