Re: Elderly Exercise?

went to the doctor yesterday he was pleased with my blood results but he said kidneys were slightly high but not worried ! anyway the good news is I LOST 5LBS !!! without really trying ! however I did have a healthful breakfast of greek yogurt/blueberries/walnut halves ! I was really pleased he told me as it has given me more incentive to get motivated again so took the dogs and extra walk ! this morning I took them their usual walk (5am) and I did a combination of a slight light jog and then walk a bit alternately ! I am sure that hubby is looking down and pleased with me !!

Re: Elderly Exercise?

Heh heh,He looks like a bit of allright...when I take MY glasses off ;~)

Good for You Derby Gal,just remember to do Your stretching exercises before attempting any runs....I don't drive so I walk everywhere at a brisk pace,not long distances,just a couple of miles 3/4 times a week...Gave up dieting as at My age being fit is more important than being thin ;~)

Re: Elderly Exercise?

Just completed my 2nd Park Run of this year: 5KM in 22:42 mins which is nearly 2 mins off the last time I ran it - 2 weeks ago. Big improvement in a short space of time. I reckon I can keep knocking big chunks off my time for a while yet.

Re: Elderly Exercise?

Last week I went mental on the running. Ran 2x on a few days. Got as far as Thursday, where I ran 7 miles with the club, and really suffered. I was exhausted! Not run since . Mind you I got rid of a humongous TV on Sat and pulled a muscle in my back whilst doing so. Lot better today so will try another slow jog. Would really love to get really fit again but I must admit for a long time now it seems I take a step or 2 forward but then take a step or 2 backward - nasty stale mate.

Re: Elderly Exercise?

I go to the gym 3 times a week if possible, and not having a car I walk everywhere I can.
I try to eat healthy, salad and fruit for lunch, lots of veg with some protein in the evening with more fruit.
I've lost 3 stone since May 2012 and am now where I want to be.
