Anybody out there doing Callenetics non-impact aerobics?
I have bad knees and one hip and aerobics leaves me in pain and stiff.
I have been doing the Callenetics for almost a year and it is great
for toning.
But I need someone to help keep me going.
Any takers?

Hi,

I'm Silky. I would like a Callenetics buddy too. I can do many of her exercises, but some are off limits because of an accident at work. I would like someone who I can partner with for support in building flexibility and strength.

Thanks,
Silky

Glad to hear from you Silky. I hope we can give each other some moral support. I love doing Callenetics
except for the ones kneeling, then I do a variation
standing. I feel like I am getting a good work out.
My e-mail address is [email protected] . My timer on the oven just went off, so dinner's ready.

Jan,
Good luck on your exercises. I also hope we can support each other.

Hi,

I'm going to do 20 minutes of Callanetics this evening. I have to gain strength.
I'll let you know how I make out tomorrow.

Did the 40 min (give or take because of the knees)
the felt a little winded but not tired. That's what I like about these exercises, you feel like you worked and
stretched but not played out.

Still have problems with the side leg raises. I have to
lean over more than I think I should. When I sit up
straight, it doesn't look like the legs are moving...
but I know they are!

It feels like a clean "burn" not a tired burn.

TTFN,
Jan

Hi,

Hope you are having a nice holiday. I have a suggestion for modifying Callanetics so that your kneees won't suffer. How about doing those exercises lying down or in the tub?
