 some exercise ideas?
Author: Patti

Well, I really need to get myself into a regular exercise program and i am looking for some encouragement. However, I have a few problems to consider. I have heels spurs that REALLY hurt after I exercise. It makes it hard to do anything the rest of the day - so morning exercise is probably not a great idea. Although I am more awake and feel my best in the morning. I know this problem will (hopefully) get better as I lose the weight...but it is not good dealing with it right now. ANY ideas or suggestions??? This is really holding me back! HELP!!

I agree - water takes the weight off your feet, and gives you a heck of a workout. Look into aquafitness classes, as well.

I taught deep water aerobics at our local YMCA (back when I was in college) and that really gave you a good workout & your feet rarely hit the bottom of the pool. I'm not sure if this is a common class offered but the class is held in > 6' of water.

You wear a belt with as many buoyancy cubes you need. I had a lot of women coming to my classes because it's a good workout & VERY low impact.

Hope this helps
