I need some very specific ab workouts for women who have had lower spinal fusions and are struggling…

Try moves where you stand up like "around the world" there are many moves where you take a small weight and move it around you as you are in a squat like position. It kills my abs without even laying down. I have bulging disc and nerve issues in my cervical, thoracic and lower lumbar which makes ab exercises harder to do without swelling and pain. I find standing up or being on my hands and knees (bird dog yoga) helps get the burn I need

Also, if you learn a way to breathe and engage the core while power walking you will get an awesome an exercise

@dhamiphoenix, hmm ok great! I honestly didn't know that there are standing ab workouts. I will definitely research that. Thanks so much!

Yes there are! 😊 anything where you engage the core and bring your knees up with give you a workout too.

Ok great!! I really appreciate your help! 😊

Can you do planks?

@dmm1976, yes i can do planks it's the one thing I do remember from physical therapy lol

If you can do planks than try mountain climbers, even climbing stairs, marching in place works too. As long as you are lifting your knees .
