Walking for Wellness and Healthy Habits

Thanks for reminding me of this thread @Appleblossom . I really need to do more walking.

I need to get back to walking @tyme , @Oaktree @Dimity , @GezzaP , @TAB ,

I think we all do. Although I always find it harder when it's not daylight savings @Shaz51

Metoo @tyme @Shaz51 @Dimity @GezzaP @Oaktree re doing more walking.

I did 2 days of exercises this week, which is getting back on the horse, but getting out walking in nature and doing self care is critical at the moment.

Hoping you're over your illness @TAB .

I was recommended an exercise physiologist but omigosh the exercise program they gave me is tough. Maybe it will get easier.

I'm still walking.

Hey @Dimity I've been back at EP a few times now. Did think was getting same thing again. Seems to have passed. I had a couple easy days w physio cos time off but they were raising their voice yest, pushing me again .had mobility class 2hrs later . Was destroyed. Went to normal physio for pain other week. Mentioned I fell. Was silly , had foot half in boot hobbling to chair to put on properly. It slipped wrenched knee, hip into table. Wake up call. Anyway they said running hip and knee class .it's harder than you'd think. All weak spots. Been twice now. So that goes another 7 weeks. So do one Monday morning and Thursday afternoon, other one Monday and Friday afternoons . Still not walking. Dropping car off to mechanics in a few hrs will mean walking there and back. Touch wood . 😀

Oh no @TAB I know you've had knee trouble for years. Sounds as though they're pushing you hard. A friend did a knee program called GLAD that she said helped.

ha yeah am doing GLAD only I twisted knee like 2 weeks ago.doesnt stop me doing anything tho

@Dimity plus I can always slow things down if I wanted to .

I don’t usually write on this thread but I’m a little proud of myself at the moment. I have taken the dogs for a walk every morning for the last four and I have sat in the sun on the grass afterwards!

Well done @Captain24 I bet the dogs loved it too.

It's great you're persevering @TAB .

I gotta do my exercises now before I give up
