@jude07 I did about a mile and a half at a brisk pace. That's pretty much my limit, it's hard on my knees. I plan to do some more exercise tonight. I am doing core exercises and exercises for balance. Since I have osteoporosis now, balance is more important than ever.
@mayofeb2020 When I went out it was 58° here, I just needed a vest.
@migizii It is a fairly decent workout and not too long. I can exercise for an hour in the gym but I get tired of it when I am watching videos. There are others by a Jenny McClendon that are good too, and fit my requirements of not being too long. If you google her name a number of them will come up. I think they are really for the 50+ crowd.
I tried doing some that my health club has put out on their website but most of them required getting up and down from the floor fairly quickly and I can't do that. It was disheartening for me, I guess I had delusions of being in better shape than I am but the knees conspired against me again.
@pollyanne I hate walking when it's very chilly, I find it more difficult to breathe, I always have.
I did try CBD cream on my knees and on my hips but it didn't help me at all. I think it's one of those things that helps some people but not others.

I am going for my walk in a few minutes. It isn't a very nice day here but still warm of course. I would hate to walk in that cold weather. I am not used to it.
I wanted to tell everyone that my husband produced his CBD ointment and I rubbed a lot all around my knee and the area that is hurting and I feel much better. I used it about 3 hours ago and now almost no pain! I'm going to use it tomorrow, in fact I think I need to order some. Has anyone else tried it?
