Hi all,
I've changed out my daily power walk these past few weeks for riding around on my push bike, and quite hard with it.
One thing I have noticed is that my legs burn really, really badly! I usually ease off when they do and it will dissipate until I go hard at it again. It's got to the point that my legs will burn far sooner than I would be say well out of breath or just plain weak from going flat out. When I was younger I never had this level of burning before.
I thought it might be age (I'm 56 & 64kg's).......but apparently it could be Diabetes related according to google.
Past 6 months or so I also get burning in my upper arms if I stretch too much with them say when reaching to the back of a high cupboard. My physio reckons that was tendinitis and I've exercised most of that out but it's still there to some degree.
Any help/advice/suggestions?
