OT Your Favorite Exercise

I'm partial to taking my dog on long walks. When I lived (single) in Bend, it was riding my bicycle.

 

Walking. I need to make more time for it.

 

Some say it's the best overall exercise there is.

 

I prefer running and during the summer, hiking through the cascades for exercise.

 

Working part time at the local hardware store I average well over 11,000 steps (on concrete) per six hour shift. It’s brutal on the elderly knees and feet but I have lost almost 30 lbs to this point…….the days I don’t work I walk with the wife and dog for 3-5 miles around the old Tektronix property. It’s pretty much the only exercise I can handle these days despite the fact that it is slowly leading to at least one knee replacement. But it beats the f**k out of running/jogging……..

 

That's awesome, man.

 

Exactly. That was my first thought.

 

Lifting pints of Guinness and what I like to call The Cheerleader Thrust.

 

I know this is the OT section but still amazes me Playing Basketball wasn't an option in a basketball forum! That was always my favorite form of exercise, could run up and down a court for two hours with a good sweat and not feel like I was exercising, get me on a treadmill or even out for a walk/jog/run and I'm bored 20 minutes in.

 

After two TKR Im able to "walk like a man" lol....thats song just came to me...
I should have done it earlier. Zero arthritic pain anymore and cam walk for miles.

 

I've been hitting the gym 5-6 days a week for 1 1/2 hours for since retired almost 9 years ago. Bike, Elliptical, Treadmill and a few weights and leg press.

 

nothing better than playing basketball

but I always get hurt when I play now and I’m not even that old

 

Whoa! So, sounds to me like @ehizzy3 is Naz Little!

 

Playing basketball used to be how I stayed in shape. Then I started getting hurt and ballooned up...

 

Now that I'm working at strengthening democracy and no longer walking 15 miles a day over sand dunes and brush, my answer would be sex.

 

(I'm the bear in the back)

 

I've been going to the climbing gym 3-4 times a week the last few months and I've been really enjoying it. That and disc golf, all the exercise I need.

 

I just found a frisbee golf course near our new neighborhood. I've never played. Is that "really" exercise? LOL

It's just as good of exercise as walking or hiking, imo. Disc golf.
