Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits

@Shaz51 I pushed a wheelbarrow full of horse shite through two paddocks today.

It’s time for medication and sleep.

Hope you have a good day tomorrow people Mwa

Hi @Dimity @TAB @Glisten @Shaz51 @P0larBear

Are you doing any walking or other exercise lately?

yes, prob did 3 walks in last week or so @Oaktree have hurt back trying to stretch kinks out of it. finally got pain meds again, but they really didnt want to give them, told me only in pain cos am depressed and live alone. I said hey, I was last week as well, just without the pain, der ............. so poor just graduated dr prescribe a variation of what I was on at about 1/4 the dose and cost me $34 not 7 as not on PBS ha ha lol

going to have to get back to work on usual dr. only saw trainee guy as could get in at no notice, not worth it.

Well done on 3 walks @TAB . My back's been sore too. In last fortnight have been back to walking daily, gradually building time & distance. GP mentioned a pharmacy med that helps and I'll see the osteopath this week for stretches. Not up to core strength exercises yet, it will be a while.

How are you going @Oaktree ? From what I've seen you might not have much time at present.

At present I have to factor in horizontal rest as well as my little bit of exercise.

yes, have -ve core strength if thats poss @Dimity lol Thanks re walks, will see what I can come up with in next 7 days. consistency is my problem, its either thru pain or motivation or both ha ha

@Oaktree I’m the Queen of Hard Graft.

Everyday I shift wheelbarrow loads of clay, builders sand, compost.

I cut down dead tree branches, clear fire breaks.

I sweat so much that I can drink at least 4 litres of water and don’t have to go to the bathroom.

This is only one job I did in a couple of hours.

..race ya .. @Glisten jk lol my father when in his 80s was shocked at how I worked , ie did not stop etc lol . and his whole life had been based on physical labour pretty much, and trying to judge others on it as well lol. Well that did not last long . after mum passed , he went rogue/random/sister became gff , put me on the Outer .. stayed away in WA 4 years waiting for him to die. fact. @PeppiPatty
