[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walking is better than running. Eventually the joints will be affected with running. Swimming is the best![/quote] [b]Running is proven to strengthen joints. Arthritis and other degenerative conditions of aging will eventually catch up with almost everyone, but a moderate, regular running routine can keep a person’s joints healthier longer.[[/b]/quote] OP here! I hear you loud and clear runner person. Keep in mind your talking to a bunch of walkers. I ran for 8 years after walking for maybe 6 months built up to and completed a marathon. Full blown running didn't "take" until after I completed my marathon I later got into a 3 mile 5X/ week run but injuries started creeping in so I changed to cycling. I am not cleared to ride on my bike yet so am stuck with walking. Fitness is declining by the day can't believe people call this exercise. No chance in hell I wait on a Doctor clearance to resume cycling I will be out there soon.[/quote] It seems like you view life as a competition that you win by exercising the best and being the fittest/thinnest, but you keep injuring yourself so maybe you aren't exercising properly for your body. It's weird that you care what other people do for exercise and that you look down on those that merely walk or don't aspire to be as 'fit' as you do. Also, if you keep exercising in ways where you keep hurting yourself and then don't follow the rehab and rest times recommended post surgery/injury you are going to be lucky to be able to walk for exercise when you get older.[/quote]
