Guest guest Posted October 21, 2003 Report Share Posted October 21, 2003 He's been stiff and sore but nothing major. One hip is the culprit but he didn't break anything at all. And of course, he's still! digging class out of his hair. He's still working on integrating the experience...we talk about it a lot, and he's been to the scene twice. But this is healthy behavior....which most men don't utilize as much as they could. By doing this, he shouldn't have any mental issues come up later about it. Charlotte " Housework is so tedious.

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 My physical limitations are depressing to me as I used to be very physically active. From being a gymnast in High School to Running later, and then into Martial Arts (running a School) then to go from that to hardly being able to complete an easy workout tape....yikes. It took me six months to get up to 23 minutes. It used to be that 23 minutes was just the warm up! Oh, well, Better to keep within my limitations than to quit. It would be easier to quit, and lie around, less painful too. But who wants to live life like that? I'm 41 years old, that's too young to be a slug! I'm grateful for the workouts because they keep me in the middle of life. I think I would have given up by now if not for the workouts. Not being able to keep up in stores, not being able to complete a 3 mile walk, not being able to clean my house.....just normal things. That's what Tae-bo gives me. Normal life! And I'm so thankful for it. Charlotte " Housework is so tedious. You do the dishes, make the beds, and three weeks later you have to do it all over again. " Unknown -- Re: workout report Charlotte, I'm new here so don't know much about your history but I, myself, have chronic neck pain (2 mildly herniated discs), carpal tunnel and daily headaches. For 2 years I didn't workout due to being depressed. The best thing I ever did was stumble across and Taebo. With him, I realized that working out did help me feel better mentlaly and physically and to realize that I may have limits as to what I can do. I do not have to be Ms. Olympia or a top athlete, etc.; my job is just to be the best me that I can be. And if that means 10 minutes of exercise one day and 30 the next, so be it. It took me quite a few years to figure that out; it sounds like you are on the right track. Colleen > 23 minutes. I found out that I'm doing exactly what I'm suppose to be doing as far as exercising, as well as not trying to do too much. I felt lazy because I wasn't getting as much done as I would have liked but I read an article by a Dr. that talked about that people with my illness need to exercise every day or they feel worse. And he talked about how a person needs to know when they are reaching the limits of thier energy to stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 25, 2003 Report Share Posted October 25, 2003 23 minutes that was slightly longer than last one. Worked a little harder, got a little more tired. My husband is starting to have major bruising from his car accident. It's funny that it took so long to show up. He's still hurting a bit, but no broken bones...(we think) from it. Got a new car. A Saturn, '02. Forest green. Nobody was surprised because I've been saying that I want a Saturn for years. The only problem is that I wanted a " red " one, but the forest green one is very nice. It's got red, gold, yellow, tiny sparkles in the paint. Very nice. Lots of nice thinking, features on the car, too. Charlotte " Housework is so tedious.
