I have not been outside for a nice long walk in months. Mostly due to the4 snow and cold. Well Sunday evening the wife and I went for about a 2 or 2 1/2 mile walk. Let me tel;l you, after not doing this for sometime my calf and thigh muscles are killing me. Monday I woke up, stood up, and nearly fell over from the sore muscles. Today (WED) they are still sore, but bearable and what not. Have you ever waqlked so much at one time that your muscles huirt like the dickens? Do you walk often? If not what do you do for exercise?

I love going for long walks but like you I haven't done so for a while. My husband was spoiled he grew up having a car his whole life. I(being from NY originally) walked just about everywhere & loved it. I am trying to get him into walking more with me because it's really a great way to stay in shape for one & second when the weather is beautiful out like it's been latley it's just wonderful to go for a walk & take it all in.

I was shocked how badly my muscles were achjing after resting/sleeping. But I will be getting back into the walking regime soon. Once I get my gardens started outside tyhat is.

I usually walk after supper about 1 mile each day.

I go on a walk whenever the weather permits. Most times
I walk about 2 miles at the time. I have walked until my
muscle pain was unbearable, so I feel your pain. (hugs)
Recently a friend of mine expressed she'd like to walk in
my neighborhood when the weather heats up. I am looking
forward to it. I love a change of scenery and feeling a
nice breeze. Hopefully the weather will cooperate soon.


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

I can and have walked in unpleasant weather. But not too often. Only for Buster have I done that though. He needs his exercise as well. w00tBesides, he is fatter than I am and needs it more. rasp

My husband and I walked last saturday and sunday it was so nice out. I dont think we walked quite that far because i wasnt hurting like you were. We are going to try to do this every night and weekend when its nice out.


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

My wife walks a few miles each day as her waitressing job.
happy
So I don't walk nearly as much as she does in actuality.

I enjoy walking at well, both for the exercise and because you can see so much more of your surroundings than when driving by in a car. We don't have much of a winter snow and ice-wise here in Oklahoma, so it's more apt to be the heat of the summer that keeps me in. In the fall when it gets cool enough to walk more, I start gradually and work up. I'm more apt to be sore from working in the garden this time of year, since we go quickly from winter to summer.


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

In the warmer dry weather I walk a lot at the Nature Center that's maybe a mile away. If walk all their paths it covers maybe 3 miles total. It's a great walk as I get to see all types of the local wildlife. Even an American Bald Eagle once in awhile.

Yes I have & I have road a bike so far & went up some pretty ruff hills & when I got to the top my legs were trembling. They trembled so bad I had to rest for thirty minutes to get my legs to stop shaking. I love to walk & I walk my two pups everyday. I am going to start walking further everyday now that the weather is getting pretty outside.

Yeah, if you get away from doing something that you've done for a long time, when you get back to it, it will take you awhile to get used to it again. I'm sure your muscles will feel better then you can go out and take that walk again. I walk often myself, I walk about everyday in my home that is. I do a 3 mile walk and a 2 mile during the week, its helped me alot, I've noticed I have more endurance now, I don't get as tired as I used to, walking is good exercise, no matter how you do it.


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

Yeah they aren't as sorte today.
Still sore but I haven't fallen due to pain etc.
I walk a lot in the summer with the gardenning
and flower beds etc in my yard.
Plus Buster goes for walks a lot more when it's nice out.

I can't remember the last time I did that. I don't get out and walk much at all, for exercise I like my wii fit. I am not big on exercise though like I should or like I would love to be able to. Before spring break my daughter said that she went out and did some walking and thought she was going to pass out before she got home. hahaha She is on meds that have put some weight on her and she is wanting to get rid of it. While my grandson was here for spring break my daughter said she walked 3 miles one day and the next morning she could barely get moving because she was so sore. Where she lives there is a hill to walk up to get to her house and that is what does her in right now. I think she is going to maybe go to the walking trail to walk and when she can she will go to the school and walk the track.


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

Many years ago (40) I used to jog a few miles daily. But that went by the wayside with my drug and alcohol abuse. Couldn't do those and run. Hahahaha! But even today I don't actually do anything as far as exercise except walking.

Hi Granpa Bob! I love to walk! I do most of my walking in my own house though, on the treadmill, but my mother who is 77 years old walks around the neighborhood almost every day. I think it is fantastic exercise, but no one should over do it. Keep up with the walking. It will get you in shape, and you will feel great. It's awsome to be outdoors. Have a great day!

Try going camping and your campsite is downhill from water and bathroom..I did that last weekend and will post pictures up later today..The back of my calfs and thighs were so sore, but I am doing much better today..:)


myLot reputation of 95/100. webeishere (12347)   ranked 1 out of 536 in grandpa bob  8 months ago

That would kill me. I have a bad leg and seldom can I walk up stairs. Going down is good but climbing up the stairs hurts
really bad. I can do it but not too often.
