Safe Exercises for Colostomy - Seeking Suggestions?

Topic Explanation:
The forum topic is about seeking suggestions for safe exercises for individuals with a colostomy. The original poster mentions practicing yoga, light weights, belly dancing, and walking, and is looking to add exercises that won't cause issues with their colostomy.

Replies - Advice and Insights:
- Weightlifting, aerobic exercises like running, swimming, and dancing are safe and beneficial for individuals with a colostomy.
- Bicycling is a great exercise, with options for both outdoor and indoor cycling during different seasons.
- Modified Seven exercises can be beneficial, but some core exercises may need to be adjusted to avoid strain on the abdomen.
- Building a fence and engaging in physical activities like sexercise are also mentioned, but they may not directly address the topic of safe exercises for colostomy.
