Hinzugefügt: 2026-05-30

[00:00:00]So, you had a hernia surgery.

[00:00:02]Well, today I'm going to show you how not to get fat [music] and stay strong while sitting.

[00:00:07]I just had my surgery yesterday.

[00:00:09]By the time you see this video, I don't know, a few days, a few years.

[00:00:13]While I was still in the recovery room, laying back, [music] the doctor walks in to give me the bad news. You need to relax. You can't walk more than a few minutes. You can't [music] carry anything heavier than a carton of milk. You can't pass gas the wrong way. I mean, come on, that's not life.

[00:00:28]So, I looked at the doctor, looking all frail, showing his age. I told him, "I see you take your own advice."

[00:00:35]In just a second, I'm going to reveal something that most doctors overlook.

[00:00:39]So, I told him, "Doctor, with all due respect, that's how you develop blood clots, insulin level spike, you get fat, you become stiff, constipation, and that's not mentioning all the bad stuff." He said, "Yes." And I'm paraphrasing, "But here's medication to help with that."

[00:00:55]>> Oh.

[00:00:57]>> Forget it, that's not for me.

[00:01:00]I'm blessed to have family members that are doctors that I truly trust. They told me to do this instead. And today, I'm sharing those blessings with you.

[00:01:08]Here are hernia-safe [music] chair exercises that I'm going to show you to stay fit and strong.

[00:01:14]In case you don't know me, I'm Yosip "Joe" I'm 65 [music] years old. I went from being fat and on all this medication to being skinny and only taking these two.

[00:01:23]>> [music] >> And even these two are on their way out the window.

[00:01:28]Okay, okay, I'm not that skinny, [music] but I'm a lot less fat than I used to be.

[00:01:33]Before doing any of these exercises, first consult your doctor because I don't want to see >> [laughter] >> Exercise one, seated leg extensions.

[00:01:43]Now, there is a specific time and a way to do these [music] exercises, but let's get to the exercises first. We'll get to that later.

[00:01:50]Sit tall in your chair, couch, or whatever you're sitting. Feet flat on the ground and extend your leg. Hold and squeeze [music] for 5 seconds. 1 2 3 4 5.

[00:02:03]Now the other leg.

[00:02:06]Now here's the tricky part. Don't hold your breath. You're not trying to win a contest. Just slow down, breathe, [music] and if you feel strain, stop.

[00:02:15]Do 8 to 12 reps. Rest as long as you want. These aren't our typical exercises.

[00:02:20]And you do four sets. But that's only half the exercise, which brings us to exercise number two. Seated pelvic tilts.

[00:02:28]Sit towards the edge of your seat.

[00:02:30]Safety, please. We're not trying to audition for the US Olympic team. Then just go backwards a little bit.

[00:02:36]Then forward.

[00:02:40]Backwards, hold for a few seconds.

[00:02:44]Then forward.

[00:02:46]You don't have to go all the way back.

[00:02:48]Just enough to get your blood flowing.

[00:02:51]Without doing those dramatic crunches [music] that make your hernia go. Absolutely not.

[00:03:01]Again, 8 to 12 reps. Rest as long as you want.

[00:03:04][music] Four sets. But here's the one that shocked me the most. Seated chest press. [music] Sit up straight. Support your back with your couch or seat. Feet flat on the floor.

[00:03:15]Your palms up.

[00:03:16]And push out.

[00:03:18]Squeeze your chest. Count for 5 seconds.

[00:03:21]And you need to breathe. You don't want to feel any abdominal strain.

[00:03:26]Okay?

[00:03:28]Two.

[00:03:29]Two.

[00:03:30]>> [music] >> Three.

[00:03:31]Four.

[00:03:32]Five.

[00:03:35]Again, [music] you do 8 to 12 reps.

[00:03:37]Four sets. And relax as long as you want in between. These are very low impact exercises, so [music] you can actually do them all day long. Like I said before, there is a specific time to do these exercises, so you won't get fat.

[00:03:49]And that would be after a meal.

[00:03:51]>> [music] >> So your insulin levels won't turn into a drama queen. And this way, you won't get fat. [music] There's a whole science behind it, and that's for another video, and I'm not going to bore you [music] with that today.
