Guest guest Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I have sure found that to be true, recently started back with walking and could only last 10 minutes, but within a month I was up to 40.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Have to laugh since I recently bought one of those small steppers. I used to be in great shape before the peripheral neuropathy, etc., but it all went downhill 2 ½ years ago and with the HCV tx, well…………. Anyway, the first day on the stepper, I did 2 minutes. I managed to do 6 minutes the other day and it said I burned SIXTY calories!! SAY WHAT?????? I busted my butt for SIXTY calories??? But it’s the truth…….and a slow start is better than no start.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 A stepper, you say, WOW, Dorothy, I am impressed, those can be tough.. They say walking at a brisk pace the best exercise for the elderly, I am practicing. ;-) Subject: RE: StaminaTo: Hepatitis_C_Central Date: Friday, June 6, 2008, 6:56 AM Have to laugh since I recently bought one of those small steppers.

Guest guest Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 Actually, I was in very good shape prior to getting ill. I was trying to keep all the pieces of my 50-something body together. I’ve put on about 15 pounds++ I stopped exercising regularly and I’ve been trying to lose about 10 of them. I was too thin before anyway and I’ll just be glad to be able to fit into all my clothes so I don’t have to buy new BIGGER ones!! LOL Plus it’s only 4 more years now till the big SIX-OH and that kind of terrifies me! I bought a Pilates machine in January and that is by far, the best investment I’ve made. It has helped my leg so much and allowed me to slowly move back into exercise. It has a cardio rebounder attachment, but I rarely use it. I prefer doing some “light” cardio DVD’s that I have. Kathy is great and her DVD “Moving Through Menopause” is excellent. I recommend it and perhaps your local library has it to borrow to try. I do the cardio and the strength portions. This new stepper is my second attempt at steppers. I had one years ago and my husband used it when he didn’t go to the gym (he was into body building.) He used to sweat so much that it actually started to rust…….funny, it never happened when I used it!! This new stepper is just the bottom with the 2 peddles, but does have arm cords to use for stability and they provide additional strength exercise. I really like it and hope that I can break that 6 minute mark soon J http://staminaproducts.com/pilates_direct.cfm?CFID=591484 & CFTOKEN=47702998 for Pilates machines http://staminaproducts.com/product_detail.cfm?ProdID=40-0045C for the small stepper I bought both the stepper and Aero Pilates machine at QVC for very good prices. I’m the “Queen of QVC” You’re right – walking is terrific exercise for any age. Sansone has some DVDs for walking at home (in place) that I hear are very good in case you’re interested. http://www.lesliesansone.com/ Well…..maybe I’ll get on that stepper now. I just had a nice piece of Entenman’s Filled Chocolate Chip Cake J Dorothy From: Hepatitis_C_Central [mailto:Hepatitis_C_Central ] On Behalf Of Sheena Sent: Friday, June 06, 2008 3:15 PM To: Hepatitis_C_Central Subject: RE: Stamina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
