Thanks for the suggestions. I really appreciate it. I have about all of Margaret's workouts.

Cyana-I do have both of those Ravi/Ana dvds. I will see if I can do them seated on a chair or the edge of the couch. I'm not up for getting up and down from the floor yet.

Lynn-you weren't in pain doing boxing standing? I may try it in a few days. I am not up for it yet. I'd just stand still, though until I am more healed.

I can't go to the Queen concert tomorrow (sigh..I am SO disappointed) It is just too much walking, and the pain is much worse at night. We hope to get tickets to another show on 7/26. We'll wait until that day to check for tickets to make sure I'm healed enough to go.

Thanks !
Sherry

Sherry - Leslie's Shortcuts Upper and Lower Body are available on her 7 Day Calorie Blast DVD, if you are interested in getting those workouts that is.

http://www.amazon.com/Leslie-Sansone...+calorie+blast

Of course, Margaret Richard is always a good bet too, I am really liking her stuff lately.

Sorry about your ankle! I sprained mine last summer, seems like it took forever to heal. Hope yours heals quickly!

Hang in there....

Tara-thank you ! I had hoped to find the Leslie for a cheaper price.

I am not very patient with healing time, but I guess I will have to be. I am really upset that we are missing at least three weeks of going to the beach. That is our favorite place to go (sigh...)

I did a short seated yoga practice, a seated tai chi for seniors and a Zumba seated warm up-that one bugged my shoulders too much. I might try something else later.

Arnica Gel

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, everyone should have several tubes of Arnica gel and never leave home without one. Yes, it works best if immediately applied to an injury but even if applied well after an injury, it relieves pain and speeds healing. It has changed my life and is seriously the one fitness item I would take to a deserted island.

Arnica gel would also immediately help that shoulder issue as well

Jeannine, that price is crazy! Tara very kindly pointed out that the upper/lower body Shortcuts is on a Leslie compilation on Amazon that was only $10, so I ordered it. I used to have them on VHS and did like them.
