@MrMakersMark I’m super glad to have read these posts today. I’m a former runner with early onset arthritis (bad knees, ugh). I’ve been walking and swimming, but hadn’t thought about rowing. I need to look into this! I wonder if my Y has a rowing machine…

Rowing is a great, adjustable impact, cardio exercise that can work a lot of different muscle groups. Especially upper-body.
For me, its more fun and less monotonous than some other repetition work outs.

I kayak and fish ALLL the time during the warmer months, so rowing helps keeps my shoulders feeling strong during off-season.

I liked it so much I bought one.

I rowed in high school and you couldn’t pay me to do an erg workout for fun. I get flashbacks just looking at them

Walking is great, I just want to get my heart rate higher and do something harder. I LOVE swimming, but it’s such a disruptor, especially in the winter. Like, the before and after swimming takes so much time and effort.

Low impact kickboxing? Fun, fast, easy on joints..

So did your vibe check out OK?

No, it very much did not.

I totally get that! Well, not the enjoyment of swimming but the fact that it’s so involved/disrupting.
@MrMakersMark is totally right about erging and its benefits as low impact cardio! My personal trauma with it is just that

Absolutely recommend this! All manner of non-contact variations of martial arts, and they’re so energizing. Dancing is good too

I literally feel your pain with the knees. My right one gets air built up and hurts like heck until it pops. The left one doesn't pop, dang it!

Agree with you on the swimming in winter. It lowers my body temp in the summer, there's no way I would survive it in cold weather. lol

Well maybe next time,we need good vibes in here lol.

If you like walking and have a route with some hills, walk the hills harder and recover on the flats. You can carry a light day pack and add some weight and/or carry some light (like 3lb) dumbbells and do arm and shoulder exercises as you walk. We live in an area with lots of trails so walk nearly every day for at least 5k as well as other workouts I may have.

Some people think only their opinion matters so they keep the dumpster burning. Always ready for a fight. Always ready to white knight. They couldn't pay me enough to do (@ToPleaseHim) any moderator job. It's like trying to keep safe a bunch of self important two year olds who are determined to beat each other.

I'm too old and too tired for that mess. I don't watch reality tv for that reason. Better for them to continue to show their ass on ignore where I don't see it.

Well I'm against all targeting/harassing here so that will be called out.
Good post.

Thinking about chopping off my hair today. But how to cut it so I don't end up looking like a poodle or the triangle hair lady from Dilbert?

It seems pretty well-established that I do this because I’m an asshole, yeah?

So freaking real! My Grandma thought it would be funny to give me a perm when I was 10. Little Orphan Annie had big ringlets compared to my tight curls.

Only the best kind of asshole! One with way more patience than me. I'd ban them all!

In my opinion (obviously the only one that matters) this post should be reported for giving incorrect information and lack of taste!

I know that at least three of the self important, egomaniacal, love the sound of their own voice, my way is the only way, tantrum throwing toddlers, are in fact three years old not two

Regardless of age or energy levels, who doesn’t watch reality TV? @ToPleaseHim , this poster obviously should be banned. Bring down that hammer
