Ok so i’m 6 weeks in now.
Every day. No day off. At least 5 walks every day. I am now up to walks in shops and now very light trails. Each walk now at least 10 mins. I am trying and succeeding (so far) to walk up very light hills. Walking down them a lot harder.
Happy to answer questions.
I would implore all people to try this.
Start small. It’ll grow.
Ok it’s been 5 weeks of my every day walking and this is how it’s going. Not seeing much progress to be honest apart from where i’m going and how far. It isn’t easier or more enjoyable etc if you know what i mean.
I have gone from walking on the street to now walking in various supermarkets which is a big improvement for me with regards living a life. I am more confident now and have worked up to 5 x 10 minute walks every day - not missing a day.
Now i want to try different shops/grounds to walk on to challenge me further. Happy to take any words of wisdom or words of encouragement. 5 weeks in - too early to expect signs of enjoyment or things getting easier? I’m finding it easier of course as i have moved from street to shops but it’s still a slog - i can just go a bit further now.
A question not about how people have improved walking but how people have improved spasticity to the point it isn’t an issue anymore?
did you just do one per day and extend?
im on 5 and its fine but is this too much?
How long did it fake to improve?
Ive been 3 weeks of 5-10 shops a day but still no improvement.
I don’t mind but how long did it take others?
Or carry on to handle more?
i’m doing multiple 5 min walks in shops every day and gym twice a week. Does this sound the thing which will bring any results regarding mobility improvements?
How did you do it?
Also i have very stiff legs but told the dress cant feel spasticity. Im at the end of the rope.
I promise to not fill this site with my posts but….for any walkers if they feel they can’t do a very short walk again due to how they are feeling or how they will perform, do you go or not?
I have promised myself a month of very short walks to see if i progress. 1st day of the month but been at it a week now.
Afyer walking more than normal i get dizzy. Is this something to just carry on with walking-wise and my body will adapt?
Been doing this for past 6 days and here is a report to let you know how it’s going.
I don’t feel my walking has improved but what i have found is i am looking out more for opportunities when i can walk to get my numbers up.
I have also changed how far i walk on each one as i found out i was trying too hard too early.
So no improvement but im walking more.
5 done today. Now rest.
Does this help anyone move around and walk in the day? Or is it just for sleeping?
So i work in a team who do 3days in work and 2 at home. I do 2 in 3 at home but i sit on the ground floor away from my team on 2nd and speak to no one all day.
i want to work from home fully as it would help me and its pointless me turning in
and there are other people in our firm who work 5 days at home for health reasons
have i got a case?
Did anyone online doing this? and build their walking?
Does anyone push through?
if so, how?
Seen a few thing on the net which links this to trauma when young. Really?
anyone had success with this?
Has anyone gone from wheelchair use back to walking? I’d really like to hear recovery stories
