I have taken to having a walk every day, The walk takes me an hour or more because I have to pace myself frequently . The same. walk would take another person 20minutes to do but one can hope.

I’m pleased to say I’m still fit enough to play golf at least twice per week - I’m ok until I sit down after a round and then try to get up!! I’ve noticed a stiffening of the legs since our dog died 2 years ago. I used to walk him for 1 - 2 hrs every day. Sadly getting a bit ‘long in the tooth’ for dog ownership but never say never!! I keep threatening to go swimming although I find it a little boring - but respect to those who partake.

Exercise is so important for my inflammatory arthritis. I workout in the gym 3 days a week, swim once weekly. I also do a 2 or 3 mile walk along the promenade most nights. There is many a time I don’t feel like it, but I know if I skip I will suffer the next day. It does take a lot of willpower to go some days, but it’s always worth it

I have to do physiotherapy on a daily basis and I also go to easy circuits and aqua aerobics each week just to keep my joints moving and keep the pain away.

I'm making an effort to walk more, & to return to Yoga (at home), which has been part of my spiritual practice for several years.

I rely on a standing frame which helps me stand up. Also I go swimming.

Not much , I find it very difficult to do exercise as I am constantly out of breath doing any kind of activity. I would love to go for a walk but I would be stopping every few meters.

Hello everyone,
Unfortunately, having a chronic condition can severely limit the amount of energy and strength a person has. We wanted to ask you, how much exercise do you manage every day? Is it a short walk? A cycle? A swim?
Please share in the comments below and we can encourage each other to move more (within our capabilities) to have healthier lifestyles!
Also, if you’re looking for some recommendations for exercises to do at home, read our article filled with suggestions for you!
