Exercised yesterday afternoon after going to the dentist. Did a little more than a half hour on the treadmill.

Today I'm popping baclofen's like Tic-Tacs, muscles are all sore for some reason. (I tense up at the dentist office sometimes...maybe that's part of it?) I did have an H1N1 vaccine the other day...wondering if I'm sore and stiff as a reaction to that?

I'm moving around better, now that my scooter has a new tire.

Stretching is still my best exercise.

Swimming every other day.
Grooming and pampering ponies.
Lots of daytime sleeps on the sofa.

Swimming does it for me.

I belong to a health club when the weather is cold and we have several pools where I live so when the weather permits it’s the pool at home.

Last summer I did over work but now I pace myself.

BBS1951 can swim a mile, I wish I could. I do what the body tells me.

I did 20 minutes of Pilates today (lower body workout.) I hope to do the abs workout tomorrow. Monday I work 10-7 then 8-5 in the training center in the suburbs Tues-Fri and I can work out in the gym at the hotel a couple of times during the week.

During training it's hard to work out because of all that's going on. It should get easier when I finish and have a regular work schedule and sleeping in my own bed and being pampered by DH.

DH and I walked around the Boat Show for 3+ hours yesterday, until my legs gave out
I didn't work out much this week, and lost 2 lbs. When I work out more, I don't lose much. Huh

short walk yesterday, and the sun is shining so although 28 degrees back out walking today. Today though I will take no kids so it will be a longer walk and faster pace! maybe fit in some yoga later after football watching. hugss all, sarah

Wow! Our club is getting so active.
Pud, do you swim in a public pool? What state are you in? Nice job by the way.

ewiz: Good for you for staying active while you are in training.

Hello Bob from N.O! Its good to see you here. I should say that I had to work up to a mile back in 2004. At that point in my life, I could not walk across a room without being winded. By swimming every day I worked up to the mile, and kept it up because I like feeling so "strong" in a cardiovascular kind of way. Tell us more about your swimming.

Debbie: thats a lot of walking! One reason people dont lose as much (or even sometimes gain) is that exercise increases appetite. Sometimes, too, people figure, "I exercised for 30 minutes so now I can treat myself to a donut!) Fact of the matter is, most exercise does not burn that much calorie. You have to swim an hour to burn 400 calories, for example.

28 degrees sabi! Good for you for walking and planning on more walking and yoga

I swam a mile today in a nice warm pool with warm air, but lots of wind!

I stay in the pool at least one hour 3 times a week and I’m careful not to overdo it.

I enjoy going to the Health club here. It’s not only good exercise but I get to meet some nice people.

I must confess I’m not always swimming, I walk in the pool and I do some exercises’ also.

When I first joined the club I worked out with a group, bad idea. Now I work out at my own pace.

Did I mention the water is not cold it’s just right. Not bad for a 76 year old with MS.

And might I say, as an about to turn 70 yr old on the 26th, You are in pretty damn good shape for a 60 yr old.
