Hi I’m new

[Blondie3108]

Good evening all

I’m new here and am using this as the next level in my recovery from a total left hip replacement on 07/09/2020 - I’m not allowed to run but will be using this to improve my walking skills

You all take care now xx 🧚🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♀️

Welcome to the forum.

In the guide below you will find a link to the Active 10 walking programme, which may be more appropriate.

This guide to the C25K plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5...

and includes advice on minimising impact, stretching after every run, hydration and strengthening exercises, all of which will help.

Enjoy your journey.

Hello, I wish you well in your progress. The podcasts with Laura can be used just for walking and ignore the instructions for the running bits. The music sets a good pace and Laura provides motivational comments. I used the podcast for a brisk walk before trying out the actual running

The one you app is better as you can have your own music on

If you ever do fancy music, you can get bone conducting ones where you can hear everything going on around you: traffic, voices, the lot. They’re amazing. Some races they’re the only headphones allowed.

Thank you 🧚🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♀️

Yes, I've read up on them and it might be my next treat!

[Tasha99 Graduate in reply to Newbie59]
