I run on a track across the street, in a park, 1 mile twice a day every day. I go to the gym three times a week and spend an hour exercising pretty continuously with weights for arms and legs. I also do about 60 to 70 sit up every time I go to the gym.

For a long time, I could not run without falling. I had my left knee replaced about 18 months ago and after a year of recovery, I was finally able to run. I found running the quarter mile track Pretty much impossible, I could run halfway around and then had to walk halfway around, etc.. Then I started drinking electrolytes in the morning. I use liquid IV sugar-free right now, I found I could immediately run the whole mile without stopping. After doing that for about three months I found I could run around the track without stopping without the electrolytes because I built up my stamina, I wasn’t winded or tired when I was done. I sweated an awful lot, Almost definitely due to the temperature control problems with ADT drugs. Had To sit in front of a fan for about 10 minutes, with a towel around my head because I was dripping wet.
After going to the gym and spending an hour doing pretty heavy exercises, I would come home rest for about 15 minutes and then go to the track and run.

I have been on ADT for eight years and also take Nubeqa daily. I am 78 and have had PC for 16 years.
