[QUOTE="covknit, post: 1485827, member: 346585"] Thank you for posting. The article refers to quite energetic exercise:- cut and paste. The exercise sessions began with 10 minutes of warm-up floor exercises and stretching followed by 30 minutes of pedaling on a stationary bike. After that, participants either jogged or walked briskly on a treadmill for 15 minutes, followed by about 15 minutes of strength training. All sessions ended with five minutes of cool-down exercises. I have right side including leg problems and would not be able to move my right leg for several days if I tried that. I have done a bit of research and found that several organisations have come up with less strenuous advice for the more physically challenged like myself. Ie 20 minutes brisk walk has the same benefit as say a 30 minute walk or in my case (purely my own invention) a 45 minute totter. I can do the totter and am similarly active for >4 hours per day. The participants on this study did 75 minutes of activity. Do you think it is possible there is a comparible benefit for those of us in the "totter" category of fitness? I am not quite lame but would be after a 5 minute brisk walk. [/QUOTE]
