Type 2 The First Day After Exercise.

[briped]

I have a trampoline - I have been meaning to get one of the smaller ones for use inside, for cold wet days.
The one in the garden means that I can use it easily and if I want to stop I can have a sit down and restart, or give up on it entirely for the moment and be back inside in half a minute. It is very low impact, makes a great surface for stretching or yoga and I think that my joints have actually improved since I have had it.
The small ones - 'trampettes' I have heard them called, are easy to move around and store out of the way so perhaps consider one of those if a more convenient and less avoidable type of exercise is required.

You know what? I'd really love that. It sounds like so much FUN!! My flat isn't really suitable for that kind of thing, and doing it on my 4th or 5th floor balcony just won't do Oooops. Seriously, I watched kids doing it on tv a couple of days ago, and I whished it was me

I find that the walk home is so much more enjoyable than the walk out because I am going home for a purpose - to get on with my day. It means that at least half of the walk isn't a waste of time in my mind.

It does feel like a bit of a waste of time, but of course it isn't at all. I do know what you mean. When I was about 12 I went for a short ride on a Norwegian fiord horse. It was so difficult to make him go forwards. Sometimes he'd stop completely and stay stopped, but when I turned him around facing his stables it was a different story altogether. Now holding him back proved to be the problem. What made me think of that experience I wonder?
