Advice & Tips
Do you strength exercises...I have not really done much for a year or so now, and I really do feel weaker. You don't have to increase muscle tone, just aim for maintaining the strength you have. I now have a recumbent bike which I try to ride 15 mins 4-5 time per week. I'm better at sticking to that, but when I feel tired/weak, I just don't do it...or when holidays or company comes around....bad excuses, but I use them! Wish I had kept up with hip and leg exercises...may try to start fro beginning again one day soon!

Advice & Tips
I have been really "bad" about exercising for the last 4-6 months. Just got myself a recumbent bike and will be more adherent about daily exercise. Still need to do my floor exercises for hip and back strength...but have been negligent lately. When I do them, I DO feel much better...don't notice getting stronger, but as my PT says, we are "maintaining"!!!
