[QUOTE="Molly56, post: 631489, member: 84857"] [USER=125678]@loobylou[/USER] Would be great if I could get him to exercise as I know it is the key but unfortunately joint pain in his hip and knee prevents this .....or so he tells me.... My opinion is that not moving is part of the problem which has resulted in joint stiffness (amongst other things) and hence the pain....and that by moving more or at least walking even a short distance would help to relieve this....unfortunately he doesn't see it that way...:( ...despite me mentioning it on a number of occasions.. Anyway at least I have made some progress with the testing:)....perhaps my next challenge should be to get him moving a bit more...I have an exercise bike / cross trainer (have not used it myself for a while) that he has said he would have a go on - I told him today that I would move it into another position where he could use it more easily so perhaps I should make a point of making that my job for this evening....is worth a try I guess:) [/QUOTE]
