Ok so it has been some time since I started the excercise thread. My RA has prevented me from doing any sort of heart pounding cardio but today I walked 5 miles! and it felt good on my joints not my hands but my RA was traveling to my knees so the knees felt good. I can't wait until this is under control I was getting depressed as my circulation is so bad that all my joints are now purple and I have blisters on my tongue for the methotrexate. I am stronger that RA and I will beat this as well..Sorry I just had to get that off my chest. So who else is moving today?

Shilpa,

I'm sorry you have RA and have been having a rough time with it lately. Glad you felt good enough to walk today!!

I moved today too!!! We took a long beach walk, about 36 blocks. It was actually longer as we walked back and forth from ocean to dunes a couple of times. I did some metal detecting later, so I got more walking in. (And found 50 cents for my efforts! lol)

Julia,
At this rate you are going to end up rich! Seriously that is good work out and having fun doing it so jealous that you are on the beach. The weather is beautiful.

Shilpa,

So glad you were able to move today and that you're making some progress in treating the RA. My exercise for the day was ziplining - and boy, was that a good workout (not cardio, mostly upper body and some good lower body, too)!

Sounds like a plan I need to get over my fear of heights and because of my RA I have been a little apprehensive about being able to use my hands to pull myself up. I would have been screaming from the pain and that would not have been fun to watch. LOL

Good job getting out there and walking 5 miles!! That is awesome!!

My exercise of the day was defintely the ziplining. . It was amazing and I am sooooo sore right now but it was totally worth it. I got some cardio in on the hike, but mostly upper body work. My arms are DONE!! I think I'm going to try to get to pilates in the morning so I can stretch out these bones.. NOT going to stay for Body Pump though.. unless my arms magically heal over night. I should stay and do cardio.. we'll see what happens.
