I feel like I'm amongst friends here, after reading your posts so far!
SquishyMommy, I've had plantar fasciitis, too! You will get better, but it is slow going. It helps greatly to have more supportive shoes, especially if you are on hard surfaced flooring (tile, wood.) I used a knobby rubber stick roller religiously, as well as small rubber balls, foot strengthening and stretching exercises, and sometimes just a frozen small bottle of water, as a roller.
Softshoe, last year I had frozen shoulder so was also limited in what I could do. Physical therapy exercises helped, some Classical Stretch, stretch bands, etc.
Debbie, I was on Total Fitness for over an hour last night. I think we're just excited to get back to the exercise habit again. And, browsing or shopping can be a good motivator and incentive.
GypsyRose, I love Margaret's workouts but have neglected them along with many others.
LAC, I was doing Jane's workouts consistently last year. They are wonderful and scenery is great, too!
Glavtx, I think we've all fallen off the wagon and that's why we're all here to support each other along the way! I have a treadmill but it bores me to tears unless I'm watching a good TV program. I also needed more variety (besides walking) and that could have been why I stopped working out. Just bored with the routine of it all.
Jane, I knew you were a long time fan of Kathy Smith! I might pull out something from her collection soon!
Be back to post daily workout later....
