An
Exercise Story
Since my retirement in 1986, I have exercised five times a week at
the local gym. I credit exercise to my completely recovering from
an attack of arthritis and reducing the effects of a heart attack.
My present routine consists of three days a week of upper body
strength work using weight machines (15 minutes), two miles on a
treadmill (26 minutes), five miles on a stationary bike (20 to 25
minutes), and fifteen minutes on a stair climber. This workout is
preceded by two warm-up laps and followed by two cooldown laps and
twenty to thirty minutes of stretches and abdominal exercises. On
the other two days I attend a yoga class which emphasizes
developing strength, flexibility, balance and coordination.
