I certainly wish I could do daily exercises. My pain is so bad that when I tried exercising gently for two days. I was put into even worse pain. Took a full day to recover. Even walking ramps up my pain to the point where my hands shake. So, I tried biking around out 55+ community: 1.3 miles one day, 1.0 miles day two. That took me almost two full days to recover. I am slowly losing my muscle mass and tone. Very discouraging.

Hello…you might be responding to my post about making sure I do strengthening and balancing exercises every day. And I do DO them. I did not, however, say that I liked to do them, that they were easy to do, that they were painless, or that I did them with anyone else around to see me cry through the pain while I did what I need to do to keep me out of a nursing home or hospital. I want to do whatever I can…pain or no pain…to kick the can a little further down the road with my family. I just might make it to see the Green Bay Packers win another Super Bowl!!
