Don’t you have a community centre near you with a swimming pool? That is not very expensive. If you want to be really healthy, with not too much in the way of aches and pains, you HAVE to make more time for your own thing.

You say you do not have time. Why not? Make time for the things you need to do for yourself.

Swimming is the best thing for legs and knees, especially arthritis.

Actually, the bicycling isn’t too bad for your knees but the walking is. Other than that, as you said swimming is actually the best exercise. You might check into public indoor pools such as a college or high school, etc.

there are a few–

water aerobics, press ups, wall press ups- wall press ups best for no pain–
and even log rolls… there are more….

I have alot of knee and foot troubles, so I have given up the power walking that I used to love. I bought one of those foldable mini trampoline, and I bounce on it.They even have work out tapes of exercises to do while you bounce.It doesn’t seem like it hurts my legs as much.Plus, when I am not using it, it folds up and slides under my bed.

Arm curls, push ups, tummy crunches.

Try doing yoga. I’ve done yoga since I was in my twenties, and actually do my reading while I’m sitting in ‘half lotus’ position, and my doctor is amazed at the range of motion I have in my legs, including my knees and hips, and I have rheumatiod arthritis! When you are doing yoga, though, work up to the asanas slowly, and ‘bounce’ when your leg is as far as is comfortable … the bouncing will ’stress the joint’ but not enough to damage, and if you do the exercises regularly, every day, you’ll soon notice that you can get into each asana (position) easily very quickly.

The YMCA has discount memberships for Seniors, also you can still work on your upper body. Try using some weights. Swimming is best since it has no impact on your joints or bones.

try some really low impact cardio excercise, like walking, or aerobics, or maybe that excercise all the hollywood stars are doing, i forgot the name of it, danny glover is doing it,, oh yeah, pilates!

bench weights, and push ups.

Bench press

exercise

tyr the cardio gliders or just plain long walks. They do the trick. just excercise

Eat only when hungry and not more than thrice a day. Nothing other than water in between. Include plenty of uncooked vegetables and fruits in each meal, preferably 50%. Chew each morsel at least 32 times to activate ur body to generate signals of hunger/fullness. Obey these signals.

Take light exercises and brisk walks regularly preferably twice a day.

U will achieve what u have not even dreamt and that too in a reasonable time. Do not be in a hurry.

then select pool then practice
