I would like to hear alternatives for those with knee/leg problems. That much walking would cause problems for some of us.

Hello @kathleen123 ,
In addition to the excellent website that Teresa mentioned the article in mayoclinic.org "Exercise helps ease arthritis pain and stiffness" has helpful advice that even if you don't have arthritis. Hope you find this useful.

I tripped on a blanket creeping from the bed, falling on a knee. I went to urgent care right away. No fractures, but a bruised knee cap found by an x-ray series, and then my bod told me about twisted muscles for the next week! Now I have an arthritic hip and a sore knee slowing down my daily exercise! I hope my local Y opens up the recreation pool so I can just stand in water up to my neck!
