[QUOTE="Indy51, post: 324563, member: 48386"] Lots of walking - I absolutely love it - fresh air and sunshine, better than any drug :lol: Women in particular were the 'gatherers', covering miles each day, so I figure lots of walking is probably the perfect exercise for us. I also do some of Mark's Sisson's Primal stuff - mostly body weight exercises (like push ups, pullups) and trying to work up to various levels of competence from what was essentially zero to start with, especially upper body strength. I'm sure the passersby who see me hanging on the kid's park playset think of me as the eccentric old lady, but it's much more fun than an actual gym :***: When I first started walking, I also used to wear 0.5kg wrist weights and I was really surprised what a difference it made to muscle definition in my arms in combination with a Primal/Paleo diet. I've recently started a few sprints - either running briefly outdoors or in stocking feet on a treadmill - though I have lower back issues and am very careful about it. [/QUOTE]
