Due to reoccurring episodes of vertigo I decided to sell my treadmill because I didn’t feel safe on it and also because it was taking up too much room in my seniors studio accommodation.
I still have the option of getting outside and going for a walk when we are not in Lockdown.
There are days when I don’t go out of the unit but still need to keep on the move.
I watch tv most days. Shopping channels can be dangerous. I got sucked in after seeing several encores of a home exercise promotion. Yesterday my Ellipto Maxx Robotic Training Cycle arrived at my place.
No assembly needed, only had to put batteries in the remote control.
Plug into power supply, sit down and relax while you exercise.
I can sit here at night while watching TV and still be on the move ๐.
PS: This is not an ad for the machine.
That looks good, Ally…Happy Days x

Interesting, Ally! Do you feel as if you’ve gotten some exercise once you’re done?

Hi Becky while using the machine it is easy, no effort required. I have been boosting up the speed. No sweat, no aches and pains as a result of it. Early days , time will tell. I am seeing the physiotherapist at the end of next week, I will be interested to hear what says.

Hi Ally, I am glad you have found a solution to your exercise problem. When I used to cycle in the gym, I always listened to music with a headset. This is a similar idea and makes it so much easier. My walking route is the same every day as we are also in a lockdown. I now listen to audio books as I walk, I makes it so much more fun I really look forward to it now.

Hello thanks for commenting on the fitness device. I have had the device for 4 days, so far so good. Easy to use, portable but won’t fit under the bed ๐คฃ . I bought this device online so didn’t get to try it out. I hope your wife finds fitness equipment that will suit her too โน๏ธโโ๏ธ๐ดโโ๏ธ๐คธโโ๏ธ๐

I have used it 5 times for 30 minutes each time. I guess too early to know yet. I have to see a physiotherapist later this week, I will ask his opinion.

Hello, sorry I misplaced your name. Thanks so much for your prayers ๐๐ผ๐. I am still getting intermittent episodes of vertigo, fortunately I now have prescribed medication to take which stops it getting bad. Today I have been sketching, I will post a photo of it. ๐โค๐ฆ๐๐ธ๐น
