    are rebounders/trampolines worthwhile?

    I want to thank all three of you (so far :>) for responding. I've thought about what you've said. It seems to me like rebounding would be an aerobic activity (in other words, it would make me feel like I'd had a workout!). I am wondering what makes rebounding a more cell-cleansing activity...

    are rebounders/trampolines worthwhile?

    Hi everyone, I am the person who had the charley horse and top of the foot problems. My charley horse soreness is gone. And I had my foot x-rayed, but it came back negative, which of course is good. The nurse said she figured then it was not a stress fracture, just an overuse injury. Wearing...

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    Thank you, Kathryn. I will try to do better. I did wear shoes today. I appreciate all this info that you gave me on what to do when a cramp starts. Usually it's so debilitating that I just have to wait for it to pass! Anyway, I'm going to note what you've said :) Elizabeth

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    RE: Whew! A towel - well, that's an idea I never thought of. Thanks for that idea. I guess it would have to be pretty thin so that the step would stay together. The noise I mean, really, is my tennis shoes tapping the step over and over, you know? However, I know if I continue stepping, I'm...

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    RE: Hi Elizabeth! Debbie, You don't sound like my mom and I'm not offended! I know I should wear shoes; I just feel so much freer without. Also, when you've worked without shoes for so long, suddenly it sounds loud to use them and I do my aerobics early in the morning and have to think about...

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    Thanks, Kathryn. I've read a little about charley horses online now, and I realize that they are a bit more complicated than I thought. When I used to get them very occasionally, the next morning I would have no problems at all. So I thought they were just temporary painful muscle spasms. Now...

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    RE: where on your foot does it hurt? Thanks for this advice, Lynn. My foot actually hurts on the top of it in the center. It's sort of soft there (above some bone, I guess)?] As you can see, I'm no doctor! Anyway, I appreciate your sharing; I'm pretty curious about all this especially as it...

    charley horse & foot pain problems

    Cathe and everyone, I've been doing your step aerobics tapes for years and loving the challenge. I exercise barefoot, and now the top of my right foot is quite sore, even when I walk on it. Maybe I've hurt my foot with the high impact. I don't know. This soreness has been going on for about...
