I have recently taken up a gym membership. Not for the first time in adult life, but this one is that bit different. It all started on a long cruising holiday during which I bought some hours with a personal trainer. The plan was to remind myself how to do limbering up and balance exercises and generally how to stop the rot setting in. It was more fun than I had first anticipated and despite the agonising pain up the legs and through the ankles, but after the first couple of sessions, I definitely began to feel much more lively and able to keep up with the family on walking around the decks and on excursions. So when I got home, the very next day, I rang my local gym and asked about schemes. Within a whisker, I was being encouraged to get a movement & mobility referral from my surgery so I could be allocated a dedicated trainer to design and help me implement a programme to work on my most serious issues. Wooh. Life has not been the same since. I try to visit the gym 3 times a week but generally manage 2 without a struggle. My limbs are responding, more politely now.
