[QUOTE="PBramble, post: 2391247, member: 5778"] you haven't specified her surgery or how long ago, but I would not suggest a rower or swimming laps for anyone who's had back surgery and is having neck trouble. as mentioned, a recumbent bike is fine, it helps keep the low back in a more stable position. an elliptical can be good too, but must be used properly (no bouncing) to prevent further back/neck injuries. without knowing her specific problems, I'd lean towards light weights, resistance bands, core strengthening exercises and add in a little cardio. unless a gym had a rehab educated staff member, I'd steer clear of them for at least a while.
