Re: Other than typing, do you do any form of exercise?

Walking 20 to 24 miles a week on Treadmill and 14 miles a week with dog, yoga, Ti Chi, weights, bike, pilates. I am 79 years young. Been exercising since my first was born in 1959. Started with Jack LA Leanne, anyone remember him? Before all the gimmicks came out. Just you and your body. Exercise is what got me through life,s hurdles. It is what keeps me independent today with two big yards to do. My 88 year old friend started with me and today, she does her own yards, goes to a reg. Gym, like myself, swims and weight training. I cringe when I see or hear 50 year old women saying their weight gain is because of age, bull, it,s Too much eating and not enough exercise, in most cases, not all. Exercise doesn,t prolong life, just gives you a better one.

Yep, I remember his shows and did a few with him, but I was in the Romper Room category more than his age group. I think his program came on just after R. Room so I always watched if it was a school holiday.

I try to walk either on the treadmill or outside an hour a day.

I do hot yoga once or twice a week.

MWF, dance aerobics. Tuesday and Thursday stretch class and interval aerobics (aerobics routines plus exercises with weights). I try to go to my local Y Monday through Friday. Sometimes I may miss a class due to medical appointments or travel but I work out regularly. My 92 year old mother never exercised and now she is totally debilitated by osteoarthritis. I think that keeping active and just moving every day helps prevent some of that disability.

Housework

Besides that, my exercise is intermittent, never consistent. I like to walk, do yoga and cardio/aerobics, try to do this a few times a week, need to build up to at least 5 though. I would like to try Chalene's PiYo series but it may be too intense for me.
