Force = mass x acceleration.
First let the heart and breathing rate return to near or normal.
Strength is simply the ability of a mass to produce force through acceleration.
Initially using body weight walking and stopping and walking and stopping will increase strength through acceleration. Say 30 meters to begin with at a fast but comfortable walking pace. Then add a couple of extra kilos to a weight vest, no more than 10% of body weight. Perhaps then every fortnight add say 5% of body weight to the weight vest. It will not be long before that 30 meters becomes somewhat of a struggle!
Perhaps three times per week Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Most out of shape runners are only ever say 3 months from returning to fitness.
It takes little time to walk at a speedy pace for 30 meters.
Eventually, the musculoskeletal system is strengthened, with the benefit of reduced injury.
No doubt, follow the instructions of this article at the same time.
