I wish I was able to do normal exercising but I can't.

'>

With degenerative disc disease through out my spine, there isn't much I can do. I have been more "active", basically walking, since I moved here from CA. I can go for walks with WS and the dogs as long as I take my wheelchair and lean on it. The last time we went was a couple weeks ago and I went 1 3/4 miles while he and the dogs went 2 1/2 miles. I was pretty much dead by the end of our trip down the bike trail but it was a very nice day and I took pics now and then and the dogs got to play in the creek once we were done. (smiles)

I can do some 'minor' exercising sitting or lying down but not much.

I have a very low metabolism, probably non-existant, so watching calories is the only other way to cut down on the weight but that isn't very easy either. Then I have other physical problems that make losing weight/exercising difficult but I deal with it. (smiles)

I'm still happy. I'm alive to enjoy a wonderful life with WS! (smiles brightly)

I did yoga for a while, but eventually I stopped. I should really get back to that...

That, and I have to do yardwork :\ a tree fell and we still haven't cleaned it all up..

I walk everywhere and have been having light dinners, which I'm pretty sure is what's been keeping me so thin this past year. Originally it was because I was seriously broke, but I'm going to continue on this way just for the sake of getting excersize.

I joined a gym with the purpose of losing weight. It's been over a week now and all I've got to show for it are sore muscles.

I'm okay with it, though. I feel better because of it.

I do all cardiovascular exercise, biking and elliptical walker machines.

A few years ago, I tried working out. Decided to stop after 8 months or so, after I found out I was losing muscle instead of gaining it.

The only exercise I get is from playing DDR... and typing.

'> I'm pretty skinny, but after taking a weight training class, I learned I'm actually pretty strong for my size. (5'9, 125 lbs, 410 lb leg press. Haha)

Now that I think about it, I felt much less tired all the time when I was working out regularly... Maybe I should try it again; I could get some meat back on my bones.

I do a bit of stuff, ontop of having a very fast metabolism naturaly

'> . I do weight lifting, yoga, martial arts (tai-chi and ninjitsu mainly), and some cardiovascular stuff (jumping rope, running, etc.). Right now I'm 149 lbs, 3-5% body fat (I'm about 6'6 too =P)

Body/strength building.Noticable gains since started,noticable...pisses my ex-girlfriend off no end,HA!

Rohein · « **Reply #13 on:** May 02, 2004, 07:14:33 pm »

I basically just do sit-ups and push-ups. I've noticed some real improvement, but I had very little muscle in the first place so it isn't much. I don't want to be buff or anything, which is good cause I don't think my body is built that way, but I'll be nice and fit eventually.

EDIT: Also I spend about an hour or more walking everyday, going between my classes.

TheIronMaiden · « **Reply #14 on:** May 02, 2004, 09:34:02 pm »

I currently do not do anything. I really should start using the excercise bike we have, again.

Ante · « **Reply #15 on:** May 02, 2004, 09:44:28 pm »

I play ddr and eat right, that's about it. I do lift sometimes, too. I voted "keeping fit".

BlueNinja · « **Reply #16 on:** May 02, 2004, 10:10:48 pm »

I'm required by the Navy to do a workout program four days a week. It's mostly cardiovascular stuff, a lot of running. Which might change, since it's started tapping a hundred degrees outside in the afternoon ...

Admiral Purge · « **Reply #17 on:** May 02, 2004, 10:13:07 pm »

I work with my set of free-weights and do inclined situps, but that's about it. I have better ways to burn calories, but while it's pretty funny, it's not exactly PG-13 stuff O_o;;

So I mostly just do the weights and stuff for strength, and I've been regular enough that I've started to get back the muscle I had after Physical Fitness a couple years ago.

Kris Fox · « **Reply #18 on:** May 03, 2004, 12:03:47 am »

I put Other.

I do about everything on the list becouse the ARMY makes me. And on top of that I live a verry active lifestyle. Rock climbing, swimming, hiking, some gym all on top of the ARMY's Phisical phitness program.

Ecco · « **Reply #19 on:** May 03, 2004, 07:04:19 am »

I try to eat right...Healthy foods, everything in moderation.
My job can be very crazy at times, so that helps.
I also do yoga, and crunches everyday....unless I'm sick.

I fenced in college and afterwards did serious jogging and later Tae Kwon Do for a few years, going to the brown belt level. I couldn't really afford the injuries, however, and now mostly do weights, floor exercises, and an exercise machine or two. I'll never be strong, but focus on endurance and general fitness.

Anima · « **Reply #21 on:** May 03, 2004, 12:21:46 pm »

I used to hike with a local furry friend, but when he moved, my exercise has been virtually nil. So I decided to try and get my Dad to join me in starting Kendo. We have a dojo in mind, I just want to read up and practice a bit before signing up there.

Lobar · « **Reply #22 on:** May 03, 2004, 02:22:37 pm »

I need to get off my fluffy tail and go exercise someday. ':p'

Although, asthma really cuts down on my ability for aerobic exercise.

I occasionaly like to work out. I have weight lifting classes right now, so I'm pretty much into staying in shape.
