@emb123 I think stairs are the last thing that gets accomplished. I still feel good about it when I go up and down without having to hold the rail!

@debbraw What type of exercises will do in the water? I'm curious, wondering if it's something I might like to add to my own water routine. I do the class then do another 45 minutes or so jogging up and down the lane in three different ways. I do what is basically jogging, then I do a "faux breaststroke" with my feet still on the bottom, and then I go backward, raising my knees as high as I can.

@contentandwell JK - I used to do all of the water aerobics exercises - but just for myself so I could set the pace - not in a class. That would include these:
Water Walking. Using the water to add resistance, this basic cardio exercise can be progressed to provide an aerobic challenge. ...
Jumping Jacks. ...
Water Treading. ...
Knee to Chest Jump. ...
Side Shuffle. ...
Scissor Jump. ...
Butt Kick
Plus - lots of stretches
Finally - laps across the pool with a kickboard to strengthen my legs.
