Get 5# weights and work bicep/tricep, lean forward and do "flies" for your pecs.<br /><br />Walk in place with high knees for 10" while watching a segment of your favorite show. <br /><br />Just that will get you in great shape. Repeat each 10 reps X3.

Our local mall never closed because some of the stores remained open. I am in my 70s with a bad back, and if I could walk any distance, that's what I'd do.<br /><br />There is (or was) a program on PBS called Sit and Be Fit. It originated at KSPS in Spokane for over 30 years. If you can't find it, search You Tube for "chair exercises." Everybody's got a chair, right?<br /><br />We recently ordered a recumbent exercise bike from costco dot com for $799 delivered. We made space for it by rearranging the furniture in our bedroom and moving some furniture to other rooms. I plan to start by riding 15 minutes per day and listening to audio books.mikemaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06569666073239903588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623860601773162733.post-51841972299488327792021-02-10T14:09:52.955-05:002021-02-10T14:09:52.955-05:00I'm so impressed with your weight loss!

Actually I do it quite a bit in the summer as well since I'm limited on the temp range than I'm supposed to be outside exercising after my heart surgery. At times I have to play "dodge a cat" but that just adds another degree of difficulty. I walk about an hour a day. I've lost 100 pounds doing this and my sugar is down to a much better level.

We tried the beach body workouts, but too strenuous for my middle aged joints.;) I'm thinking yoga until we can get our walks again. Let us know what you come up with.

If you find a way to stay motivated let me in on it. <br /><br />Here are some Youtube channels I've tried to follow. <br /><br />This one I thought would be fun to do with my grandson. The British accent & it's for kids. A blogger I follow in England started doing it with her kids & it was the jump start she needed to stick with it. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAxW1XT0iEJo0TYlRfn6rYQ<br /><br />This is one I read about in an over 50 group....that's as far as I've gotten with it. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCag7XoiJLutjBTsM0tAzUzg<br /><br />Another from the over 50 group...it looks pretty hard to me though. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuGdYLQ89xKqvrSPsavMuKQ<br /><br />And another I've read about. <br /><br />I wonder if being a homemaker all these years has ruined my ability to stick with something? I seem to flit from thing to thing & only finish the fun stuff!

I want to do some sort of Pilates to increase my range of motion. I used to do those at the YCA in the pool, but not since Covid started.
