Nicole, so you know I broke my femur and thus have very limited mobility below my hips.
What are some good exercises that I can do (for cardio primarily) that do not stress my body below the waist. Currently even sitting up hurts (so situps are out of the question), and I cannot put any weight on that leg (so push ups are out). The only thing that I can think of is to lie on my back with free weights... Not many options that I can come up with.

Hi Nicole! Looks like we have a lot in common! Look forward to seeing you 'on the circuit'! Happy New Year!! Be safe!
Hi Nicole...great pics! Thanks for adding me, now I have one friend on this site!! Congrats on your latest TRI. Your blog is getting me excited for the Tri for the Cure in August!
Do you watch videos when you're on the trainer? I've got a couple spinerval videos that I watch. Recently, I've been downloading videos from http://cyclo-club.com/

Of course you can friend me. It's always nice to meet other tri-geeks.
BTW - I just joined this forum and you're my first!
