Guest guest Posted June 11, 2005 Report Share Posted June 11, 2005 Hi Sharon, I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures. I'm waiting for the moderator to approve my joining the group. I, too, do stretches, usually every time I do my exercises. I have a stationery bike that I sometimes go on, and when the weather's not so hot and humid, I take walks outdoors. I did a lot more walking when I lived in Manhattan, just as part of my daily life. It's different here.

Stretching on a regular basis and for me it is a class 5X a week. It's the key to keeping one flexible and balanced as we get older. Pilates, Yoga and TiaChi are great ways of keeping one's body flexible. Getting in classes with others is always an encouragement.
