I am posting a link labeled exercises for people who cannot walk but I learned a lot from it and rethought exercise goals and the the need for stretching, balance and core…

Basically…any exercise is better than none at all, even a walk around. If walking isn’t possible then whatever movement can be made is still the next best thing.

A Tuesday Hello to everyone at 4:15 am CST zone Chicago Metro. My weather is High 43F, Low 33F and cloudy and showers. The streets should be safe for the next 5 days and I can go out and do returns and whatever I choose. I had a bad day with a huge incident with a unit owner below calling me at 8 am that a plumber needed to get into my unit…

@roseinbloom I am sorry you had that drama yesterday Rose but it is good that it is sorted now and has not cost you any money to put right. It is good that your weather is above freezing today and the roads are clear for driving. Hopefully a waterproof coat and an umbrella will protect you from the rain. Have a great day.

My phone saga continues. I set my Google Pixel not to disturb on Sunday from 9 to three. It rang during church. I noticed that I set it not to disturb the other 6 days of the week. Gotta get that turned off, I have a phone conference scheduled for 11 am today. I need to make use of the “do not disturb” more. I hate to have my naps disturbed. LOL…

All Activity Counts
I reread the article and it made me happy to see that housework and other activities can count for the doctor recommended 150 minutes of exercise. I do housework and then I have a nicer home, a double bonus. Going to the gym and doing their classes hurts my brain because I get tired, use up my time, and still have my work that needs to be done.…

Good one, @roseinbloom its a win win.

Absolutely, and moving to music helps with flexible movements as well.

@roseinbloom Thanks again Rose. Really inspirational article. Nothing we dont really know. But putting it all together like that is really motivating. We are foolish if we ignore it all. Or probably just lazy like me. I can be very active at times. But I need more focused regular exercise. On my to do list.

Day 3 of 2026
I have had to find numerous ways to motivate myself to be active and exercise. I have always gbeen ood at sitting. I could read a book cover to cover and had trouble not doing that. I could sit all day sewing doll clothes. When I was younger, I had little time to do too much of that, but now, I have to focus on the bad effects of too much…

Im with you @roseinbloom yesterday was one day too many of over indulgence and inactivity. Today I have walked miles.Toting my backpack. Now full of fruit and veg. Healthy meals planned for the week. Treated myself to a coffee before the long trek back. Feeling so much better

Those of us that do not have full use of our leg’s look at the other side of physical activity. There are many exercises for wheelchair bound folks of which I take full advantage. I ‘exercise’ my mind and imagination when I feel stressed and this in itself makes me pleasantly tired. So, @roseinbloom I’ts not so much that sitting harms you,…
