Hello @rnj09,

I would also like to welcome you to Connect. I would also like to invite you to our Parkinson's discussion group. Here is the link, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/group/parkinsons-disease/. As you look at all of the conversations there you will probably find one about exercise.

I have also been diagnosed with a mild form of PD and I find exercise to be the best medicine! It does strengthen muscles, improves gait and balance. Have you ever tried seated exercises for PD? They can be quite helpful when the weather is bad and there is a fall risk from wet or icy walkways. Here is a link to a Youtube video that demonstrates seated exercises for PD.

@hopeful33250 I like those exercises and using the breath . Even though our group here doesn't have P.D. I think they are great and maybe some people who do have PD will join us when we get started back . I didn't time this how long is it ? We go for 45 minutes but if its not that long I can use another one also . Thanks for sharing .
