Need suggestions please!!!
Amanda,
Good for you for getting an exercise routine started! That said, I am the poster child for aqua aerobics. I started over 6 years ago when arthritis developed in my knees as a result of a car accident. Back then, I went to two classes a week and 6 months later increased to four classes a week and have never looked back! I'm now in the pool 6-7 times a week (I did take a week off after my surgery in July
). My first instructor has become my best friend and came to the pre-op education day and was there the day of my surgery - she works with other bariatric patients in classes and water therapy, so it was a great education for her. She says that walking 20 minutes in the water is equivalent to walking for a hour on land!
