Walking/exercise?

I did not go for a walk today, nor yesterday because of all that snow on the ground. I usually just go to the Mall and back again and that is about a mile and on Monday, I went twice to pick something up. But with the snow and the slippery conditions, I have to do my walking in the house and I have a small house. I was hoping to get a little more exercise and lose some more weight.

i like walking especially when its morning and you can smell the freshness of the new day.. walking awakens my nerves. but at some days that i woke up late, i just do some crunches/sit ups then dunk myself in couch to watch dvd whole day. hehehe

grandpa bob, you should do some more exerise to keep you looking crisp and young! hehehe but be careful with those bones and muscles..

goodluck to you and to your health!

I walk outside when the weather starts to get nice out. I walk 3 miles 5 days a week. In the winter I walk on my treadmill. You know all that walking I do seems like I never loose any weight.

Hi Grandpa Bob! Yup! I know exactly what you mean! I also
haven't been really doing much walking in quite awhile for
the same reasons! It has just been too cold so far to really
get back into my walking habits yet! And even when I do a
bit of walking I feel the same way afterwards! I did walk
a few weeks ago to the grocery store which is quite a hike
from where I live and there are hills and it is quite a walk!
My legs felt the same way! My calves were killing me for a
few days! It takes awhile to get used to doing that amount
of walking again! We have to start out a bit slower and
shorter distances!

I daily walk 1.5 mile both in the morning and afternoon just to get to school and back. My muscles aich only after I spend a long time (like vacation) not walking back and fro.

Exercise? Ex-errr-cise? (said like Maynard G. Krebs said "work")

Walking hurts my feet and my feet hurt because I've got all kinds of problems with them. No, I don't exercise much.

Hi Grandpa Bob! I have just done a lot of walking yesterday because I was in our city capital trying to file a claim in one of the banks here that was closed. There was a lot of paperwork that needed to be notarized, photocopied and filed in different locations. My goodness, when i woke up this morning my legs were aching. I felt I have done so much leg exercise with a lot of weights strapped on my legs.
Take care and blessings to you.

I usually walk during the summer - and pick up pop cans or bottles along the highway to recycle. During the winter or when its icky out i usually use my elliptical trainer or do yoga.

I think what happen to you is a muscle, that is really what happens when you
had done an activity for the first time after how many months you have
not done it. It is also the same as having done an aerobic exercise, the pains are the same.

Advil is great for sore muscles. I take it when I know I have overdone it just to keep that morning after shock from happening. I like to walk for exercise. There is so much benefit to walking for health... not the least of which the mental clearing aspects. Love it.
Have you ever heard of magnet shoe inserts? Helps with blood flow among other things. I wear them when going on long walks and never, seriously never, get sore muscles when I have worn them. They are amazing.
