That’s the plan. I’m starting with some basic bodyweight exercises just to get moving, then I’ll start to add in some weights and things over time. Although I have a lot of bodyweight, so everything I do technically involves a fairly high weight loading to start with!
I’ve had a tendency to over do things when I’m starting out and then burnout and lose interest (with everything, not just exercise). I’ve learned I need to focus on success as being regularly engaged, not on any specific results. “It’s a marathon not a sprint”. Getting the pace right is the most important goal.
Start any strength training light so you’re not too knackered. I’ll make going back to it much easier.

Do you have a program? The hybrid callisthenics website has a gentle beginner body weight routine that I used for post surgery rehab.
