Treadmills?
Stationary Bikes? Elliptical Trainer? Is any one more suitable than the others for PWP? We've tried a treadmill before, but he would end up with pulled/stiff muscles. V finds it very difficult to walk. The branch of Yoga that is Parkinson's friendly does not have an instructor here. The yoga that he practiced with a non-specialised instructor kept putting his muscles into spasms, that now has been stopped. Some stretching and mobility movements - thats all we do for now. We need to add some aerobics.
