Working Out?

I don't have anybody to walk with often these days because my limp is so bad I can't go far, but I am trying to get back to doing what little I can in exercise, here at home. I have a feeling from some of our chats that I am not alone in trying to get more active again. I thought we could put our trials and tribs in this thread and even how much we are doing to work out, just to keep each other going.

What do you think?

I managed to do one set of reps at a count of 5 of 10 different exercises for my arms with 1 pound weights and a handful of strengthening exercises and some stretching for some other muscles. Doesn't sound like much but for me, it's great.

We could all have stronger butt muscles if we would do the butt exercises while on the computer. I just find it hard to read going up and down all the time.

I went to a new chiropractor this morning and my leg did shift a little bit so I just walked about an extra 400 steps or so. Not much to most, I know, but I'll take anything I can get!

I've been sticking with it most days since I decided to post it - funny I picked beauty and fashion to put this under instead of health or diet - tired week! Anyone want to start walking?
