I am sending you a friend request. Take care,Pete

Yeah Pete. Im on a 3 day split routine with one day (today yahoo) that I do nothing. Well I hit the treadmill for a half but let the muscles relax and recover

Peter, I do know that when you are doing as intensive exercise/workouts as you are that you HAVE to take rest days to let your muscles repair themselves. During the exercising they tear and bruise and need time (a day or two) to repair themselves. What you are doing is tearing them and tearing them again without giving them any time to heal.

Ziggy, my work out lasts anywhere between 2-21/2 hrs on most days. When I have the cardio/core/weight training it is 11/2 hrs. This prm is twice a week.On other days I do free weights/ machiene weights +core. I concentrate alot on core. Many of my exercises like curls,squats are done on a Bosu(shaped like a 1/2moon". Others are performed on a core ball.e.g.,triceps,chest flys,crunches,pull overs with 35 lbs dumb bells. Hope this gives you some sense of my routiene.I ache all over ,muscualar.Most painful is the area behind my knees and my hamstring(spelling?)Thanks for your concern. Hope to see your respond soon. Pete

Peter, how many hours do you do per day? Maybe you should have two rest days. You mention being constantly sore - is it muscular or joint pain?

By the way - welcome.

Ziggy

I love the Wii, dont get to use it as much as id like to (have to fight the kiddos for time on it). My best "diabetic weapon" is my recumbent bike... Its a Schwinn and worth every penny. I welded up a laptop stand for it, when i need to work I can take a conference call or do email etc on there, when im relaxing i put on a movie and depending on the movie and how hard im pedalin, I can drop my bg from the 140's to 90's in the timeframe of one movie or con call :)

Ill have to post a pic... made the stand out of misc scrap metal... :)

Oh, I have began using the Wii - Wii Fit and I have bought Wii Fitness trainer and another Wii game for the winter days when I cannot walk. Anyone else use the Wii?
