First Major Goal of 2019 Done, Now What?

So now that I finished the #ResolutionRuck2019, I plan on changing my workout from just walking to include body weight stuff.

I am going to need to get a good list of welcome party exercises from GoRuck Light events I need to prep for.
If someone can get those to me I would appreciate it.

One of the issues I have is my back damage.
My T6-T9 are calcified on the inside and are too flat so my back doesn't curve like normal.
I am going to try to get a pic from my chiro of the X-rays for a better view.

The other issue is sort of related to my back but I have serious issues doing sit ups even if I have some strength in my abs.

Anyway, I am debating about a couple potential processes and I might switch between them.

First I have to decide on my goals and those are a bit mixed. 
1 - I need to increase my strength. I have lost a lot of strength after my WLS.
2 - I need to increase my flexibility. It will help in the long run.
3 - I need to increase my HIIT capability, especially with body weight stuff for events like GoRuck.
4 - I need to tone what I have and tighten everything up.
5 - I need to keep up and increase my endurance, especially under load.
6 - I need to strengthen my core.

My thoughts are to have 2 or 3 different programs and change it out every couple weeks.

  1. I think yoga will work wonders for you. I would definitely look up some yoga tutorials on YouTube and do them. They go from 10 min to 30 min. I feel much better after the 30 min ones. HIIT are ambitious and I'm envious of you for even considering them. I would keep tucking if I were you and add weight to your arms and legs as you continue to slim up.
