Today I just managed to get in PT exercises between taking my grandson to school and going to the heart doctor. He says things look good. So, why couldn't they just say that and that they just wanted to go over things. Worrying people is not nice. They did an ekg when I went in and then he talked to me. Asked questions and told me that Rheumatoid arthritis can affect the heart as well. I knew that already. He suggested that I get a HeartView CT just to be sure nothing is starting up (thought that is why I got the echo) It would cost me 50 dollars. Anyway he says come back in a year so we can stay on top of anything that might come up. I told them I would call later and make that one year away appointment. I guess I was a bit peeved about the worry, getting there a half hour before appointment time to fill out papers since they told me to and then waiting over an hour to get in. Still had to sit in the examining room after they did the ekg. We picked my grandson up from school early and went to eat and then Incredible Pizza, which is an arcade, mini golf, bowling etc place. SO the afternoon was fun. Still icing and having pain
: I was hoping the effect of the dry needling was delayed as I read It can cause some pain right at first. No such luck.
Roselyn, I am just taking my grandson to school for two weeks while his parents are on their European cruise.
It is not close so the trips back and forth take up a lot of time. That is great that you are almost done
Belinda, that ab workout with the standing abs and dumbbells was always the one I wanted to do from that set. Nice work using the rebounder for the cardio.
Debbie, I have found Boxing and Drills somewhat easy, but I get a decent burn and amount of steps from it. I used hand weights and my 8# vest the last few times I have done it. I think my 4# vest would be a nice option as well. I try to be a bit more active on my foot work when off of the step. I do think it is fun though. Moves along quickly.
Jolie, I keep my weighted gloves and ankle weights all on the shelving in front of me so they are easy to grab. Sometimes though I just use dumbbells, that way I can put them down if I want to.
Doreen that move does sound a bit uncomfortable. You did a nice way of modifying it. It would still work just as well.
