[QUOTE="Phoenix55, post: 1876530, member: 242273"] Why not try a little variety. There are days when I really do not want to go on a 3-5 mile walk, but 2or3 two minute sessions with my Bodyblade leave me feeling good. How do I measure improvement? I can keep going for a few seconds longer each time, I see fewer slack muscles in the mirror (those dreaded 'bingo wings'), I do not slow my walking pace as I go up two flights of stairs, I aim to walk briskly at 4/5 miles per hour. I have various different walks to fit 10/15/20/30 minutes and more depending on whether I am at work or at home, if I complete a walk inside the time allotted and have to plan to go a little further. I appreciate that getting out and about may be difficult but the walk to next door can gradually be extended, walking briskly round the supermarket to do your weekly shop without leaning on the trolley, a trip to a local park are all ways of measuring improvement.
