Cut the grass

[Inamoment]

It's only a little patch but I didn't think I could manage it, it was very long too. However I did and it got easier as I progressed. I had to have quite a few rests. Now, an hour later, I feel much better than this morning. When I was in the Brompton for a week and really doing nothing my blood pressure and SATs both got lower. On the morning I had a bike exercise test they were both 90 which is pretty low. The test was really exhausting. When I had my obs done a couple of hours later my blood pressure was 115 which is high for me and my SATs 95 which is also much better than normal. I deduce from this that exercise is good for you!

Exercise is good for your body and achieving a goal is good for ones self esteem. A win win.

Hi Peter. Great that you tackled the grass. Nothing can beat a sense of achievement to spur you on to tackle other tricky tasks.....just pace yourself.

Wishing you all the best with your activities. Take care. Pam XXX

My garden is an excellent exercise area and the grass needs cutting too - you're very welcome......😄😄. Well done for getting yours done.

Gardening is good all round exercise. My previous garden was hard work, 1/3 acre that grew faster than I could cut it back. Thank goodness I moved. Weeding and planting is difficult, getting up and down a few times makes me very out of breath. Getting down on the ground an staying there works well.

Exercise has made a big difference to me in a year my Fev 1 went from 70% to 84%. My next check is on Monday 20th March.

Watched my wife cut the grass the other day. Looks good but I felt a bit tired afterwards because I had to watch.
