Physical Activity and Mental Health

@Shaz51 Awesome Shazzy! Thanks for the tag sweetie xx

I'm about to jump on my bike for an easy spin. Love being able to exercise to help my headspace and stop my old bones from seizing up. The joints don't like this cold weather too much so need to warm up!

Hi @Shaz51 and anyone else reading here.

For me it's tai chi and I'm quite hooked on it.. Twice a week most weeks. Incorporates Qi Gong too. Physical, mental and spirit benefits - words are not enough to say how profoundly I feel all this when I do it. Encourage others to give it a try.

Going to do a short bike ride later for my headspace and then do an hour's practice on guitar. --- way to go @bipolarbunny , enjoy xx

I have vacummed the house , the washing is done so far

that is wonderful @eth

I used to do Line Dancing which was really good

@Shaz51 Great work Shazzy, nothing gets me sweating like vacuuming! Clean up day tomorrow for me, maybe 🤔

@eth I taught martial arts for over 30 years, Taekwondo. Whilst there is the very active kicking sport/side, I personally enjoyed doing the poomsae best (like kata). Can definitely identify with the empowerment! Whilst I no longer train formally. I've been thinking of trying something new, my therapist actually suggested Tai Chi, hmmm might be a good fit??!

hello @Poppyfriend543 , how are you today

no work here today @bipolarbunny for us , it is raining

Vege garden sounds like a great idea @Poppyfriend543 What things are you thinking of

My day has been very quiet too , even had a sleep this afternoon xx

Another cyclist @bipolarbunny

Do you only do Indoor trainer or do you get out on the road also?

@Eve7 also mentioned spending time on the indoor trainer.

I cycle with my wife (aka my darling) both Indoor trainer and oit on the road.

Having withdrawals at the moment lol as we are away from home.

Darling is talking about a ride when we get home (that will be 6-7 hour drive depending on road works).

Not sure I am quite that keen.

i used to do triathlons @Determined but now I have more sense! I sometimes go out on the bike but usually limit my cyclimg to the tour de France every July.
