When the SIP began, I committed to walking 5 miles a day, weather permitting.  Above and beyond that, I set the goal of walking every street in the hamlet I’ve lived in for 32 years.  It’s only less than 4 square miles, but I learned so much about the place I live in and the great people who live here.  And I only got lost twice!

I work out while watching YouTube videos. Yoga with Adriene, Fitness Blender, and GynRa channels have many to choose from. I also take hour or more walks most days.

I am taking walks outdoors when the weather permits and watching the 10 minute exercise videos with various trainers on the AARP App. I like that they are short and I do them throughout the day. I like that I can mix up the routines

for me, i'm doing just as i always do: i'm eating as i always do reading, watching t.v. ect. but the only exercise i get is the best one: walking. since i have no means of transport walking is all i do. i do use public busing when i need to go far & do my main shopping but for a few items & if i have to go to several places i walk.

bike when the weather allows 5-15 miles. 20 minutes 2X daily on nordic trac treadmill at 3.3 mph on level. Can be adjusted for steeper angles but level is fine at that pace for seniors (55+).  This is more than enough to elevate heart rate for 20 minutes-that's about one mile at 3.3mph-and doesn't overstress leg muscles.
