I'm still having trouble lying down, as well as standing and walking, but after doing almost none of my exercises/PT for a couple of weeks, I did half a dozen different exercises, sitting down. Adrian and Cattitude to help with this, by moving a chair and hooking the elastic band, before lunch, and by bringing me my hand weights after lunch and Scrabble.

That's almost all the available PT--most of what I do, I do either standing up, or lying on my back. I also did biceps curls for the first time in a few months, because that seemed like something I could do sitting on an ordinary chair. (I used to do them sitting on an en exercise ball at the gym, back when I was going to a gym.)

All of these were done sitting in an armless kitchen or dining chair:
clamshell w/ elastic, legs parallel, 10 (this is the only one I normally do seated)
row, 2x10 each
internal rotation, 10 each
shrugs, 5 pounds each, 10; 3 pounds each, 10
lateral raises, 2 pounds each, 10
biceps curls, 5 pounds, 10 each
.
