lie on the floor on your back to flatten it out

" Your insides get massaged as you bounce (you) can feel it on the tramp. " Pure Malarky. Lymph nodes/glands don't derive any benefit from a person "bouncing around". Granted any physical activity is good or better than remaining sedentary but to ascribe improvement in lymphatic health to bouncing ...

One other thing that is useful when crippled. I did 30 min at the pool today. Have been nursing an injured ankle that got hurt in base jump training. Ankle is no good for jogging. But worked fine with swim fins.

Bouncing on a trampoline or as you mention on an inflated ball may indeed do wonders for a nagging back but it is not going to do anything for your lymphatic system, et. al which is what I was alluding to in the earlier post. Andy. Sure it does. Your insides get massaged as you bounce. The ball? We...

...BTW rebounding can be good if your borderline crippled and jogging is out for you.

Oh yeah, if you are incapacitated to any degree a Nordic Skier is a must have :roll: Prat. Absolutely Prat (easy does it that is) Now if you go at the Nordic like a bat out of hell, then all bets are off with cripples. I had back and knee issues and could not use a bike, jog or treadwall. But I cou...

I see as lot of posts here from cripples. These 3 machines are great for when my back or legs are injured. Of course, sometimes I am messed up on top and bottom ends, and can hardly move, so then I just watch TV. (Extreme sports DVD's.) But that is rare. http://www.biodex.com/rehab/cycles/cycles_130...

One small mark on paint in an obscure area from rubbing during shipping.

These are areas I aspire to work in. Although time, $$ and energy constraints don't always allow me to get em all in. But having the right formula is half the battle and I have them on my mind to not neglect. Weight / strength training Aerobics / HIIT Nutrition Balance / equilibrium training Yoga / ...

Do you use gloves when rowing the C2?

Wow...my wattage is puny.

For health and fitness and not competition, should I still be striving for such high numbers as was mentioned? Or are the low to mid hundreds the minimum for a serious health and fitness devotee?

And what do the women do?

Is there a benefit to rolling? And how did they get them to roll?

Thanks for the youtube. It really helps. I seem to have fixed the problem by keeping my knees together and grabbing the row handle near the ends and not in the middle area. I used to grab the row handle in the middle, so my arms were in line with my knees. Now my knees ride together inside of my arm...

I always try to do something, even if it is just light yoga.

Now if I am deathly ill I just watch some sport related dvd...if I can open my eyes.
