Walk, walk and more walking
Walking is very good for us. It is not too hard on the joint, but if you walk at a good pace it is very good for you heart. It can also help you with your weight control and I find it relaxing, though I do have to watch where I am going some times because I get too relaxed.
If you like to swim that is great. It is another exercise that is good for your whole body, but unless you can swim inside in a heated area in the winter it can get a little cold. So for many swimming is out as year round activity.
Biking is another good form of exercise. It helps build the large leg muscles, which in turn helps move blood through your body. One thing you have to do when riding a bike is observe what is going around you. If your’ not paying attention you can run into something and that isn’t good. Another thing about biking is the bikes are getting real expensive.
How about running or jogging? Either one is good, but they are both hard on our joints. After years of running or jogging many people have joint problems. Now I don’t run or jog because I have a large chuck of arthritis in the middle of my spine it just causes to much pain for me, so I chose to do something else.
So my choice is to walk. Yes walking keep me in shape, both physically and mentally. You see when I walk I let my mind just run wild and many times I get some of the most creative ideas. Then I can’t wait to get back home to work on them.
My suggestion to you is do whatever you like, but then do it. Not once in a while, but on a regular bases. That means five or six times a week.
When you get in to the habit of regular exercise you will feel years younger and you’ll live years longer.
Happiness with wealth to you
