1. I'm with you, Seaagull!

3. HI Sheltie, we were in MIRT together and I learned much from you.

Maybe, maybe I can return the favor. Part of what my walking routine is now, is working with an electrical muscle stimulater. This is contraindicated with a pacemaker. Sorry but this appears so far to be very effective way to wake up older and unused or neurologically damaged muscle. I will go into this more later. This is a new thing in my repertoire and in my view overshadowed by other techniques I use.

4. I love your waving thingy.

2. I live in a tiny house with no room for equipment, so I mostly go outside.

I have a 1/10 mile track on my property that I try to walk or slow jog 4 or 5 days a week. I average about 6,000 steps a day. 75 years old and it's just what I do. Others have their own routine. What ever you do is great. I have a pacemaker and 3 different Cardiologist have all told me the same thing...KEEP MOVING. I never sit longer than 30 minutes without getting up and moving.
On the other hand, I could get run over by a school bus tomorrow.

5. My grandmother lived over 100 years

and almost never sat down, even as she aged. I know you are on to something. Also when you do sit, I don't use the arms to launch myself out of the chair. This is good for the quads, glutes and the core among other muscles I am sure. When one starts this for a time you need to put your hands forward and gradually move your hands in toward your chest. I cross mine on my chest. It is something we all do daily multiple times and should be using to our advantage.

IMO

Damned lazyboys.

6. You will have to tell us about tiny house living sometime.

It's an intriguing idea.

9. If there are any who wish it.

I will continue via PM. Please contact me and I will respond to you directly.

A swing and a miss.

Thanks to all who have read thus far. Much going on around here.

Peace
