Seems all the sitting around crocheting has been so much fun and I love it but it's not doing my weight any good at all.
So I have invested a few pennies in a very basic manual tread mill.
Went for cheap as I've bought exercise machinery before and not used it.....
and cheap to run...Sue Power, lol.
It folds up so not a huge space required.
At the moment it is set up in front of the TV.
I am working very slowly up to doing 15/20 minutes on most days to drop a couple of stones, going
VERY VERY SLOWLY....a couple of minutes of running and walking, all on quite a steep incline was all I could manage the first go.
I've read a lot and i wont be over doing it to start with but
it always surprises me as how quickly you can improve even for a couch crocheter like me.
I cant' stop eating so more moving was necessary, leave the dent in the sofa for a few minutes a day.
The first day I only manage 1/2 mile in several tiny sessions.
The second day I managed 1mile in about 3 sessions
I wonder what today will bring?
Any tips on running on a treadmill warmly welcomed....and i do know it would be better outside but i know I wouldn't do that, at 61 if I am going to make an ass of myself.
I will do it in private so a treadmill was the best option for me.
Funny though..I am quite enjoying it so far.....early days hey?
