Hi all

[DemMedic]

I'm new here but since this forum exists, I just wanted to say hell.

My regular job is Paramedic, but I'm also a certified personal trainer if anyone has any questions that I can answer, please feel free to ask, or pm me.

1. 74 year old and I fast walk or slow jog

3 to 5 miles 3 or 4 times a week. I’ve found those walks and jogs are the best antidepressant ever. Seems to improve every aspect of my life. Do I have an addiction?

2. Plus I got a pacemaker 2 years ago,

thanks to my RN partner that took my pulse one morning when I told her I felt tired. My cardiologist said to keep moving.

4. Yes

They don't like us to stop for very long.

[DemMedic]

3. Of course I do

My biggest endorphin rush is my recumbent bike.(Indoors)

3-4 times a week for the past several years.

5. Did you really want to stop by and say "hell"?

Or would you like to buy a vowel?

[DemMedic]

6. That was post workout

And pre-coffee.

[MiHale]

7. Then it could be spelled...o hell...

Welcome Home to DU.!

8. Post workout, but pre-coffee? So basically Purgatory.

Welcome to DU, DemMedic!

DU is a grand romper room full of tinkers, thinkers, activists and helpers.

Basically people who pay attention to the world, but with the affliction of enlarged empathy.

Cheers,

9. Hello from Myrtle Beach

I have RA and have a hard time exercising and keeping in shape

I would like to manage my time better so that I could walk more

[DemMedic]

10. Walking is great

Have you considered a treadmill.

I find I can manage my time better because my bike is right next to my bed.

11. thanks for the reply demmedic

When I walk, I walk my golden, my dog.
I do "mindful walking" where i try not to let my mind wander and I focus on my steps.

the warm weather is around the corner and I have access to pools, so God willing, I will swim

12. Sounds so nice

I miss taking my dogs to the park.
