[QUOTE="SaladDaze, post: 1872899, member: 469373"] I don't do running yet. I did suggest it to my doc a while back before the diabetes diagnosis and he said "do you want a heart attack? Try walking 10,000 steps a day regularly first.". So I try to do the 10k steps each day but sometimes it's just too boring or the weather's not suitable, so for exercise I bought a folding static bike and more recently a folding rowing machine (space is limited). I watch an episode of something on Netflix while using these. Then I read that, in addition to aerobic exercise, weight training is important. So for weights I've started going to one of the local municipal sports centres a couple of times a week . I may or may not do a bit of running eventually. I would be a bit worried about knee damage myself having damaged both of them on separate occasions in the past. [/QUOTE]
