Hi, Crochethooked

That's Great - do you feel physically and/or psychologically better for it?

Are you hoping/expecting to walk 10,000 steps how often?

I am 69, and I was disabled for a few years, and then, within a couple of months, I walked 10,000 steps a day (50km a week) for two weeks - but it was too much, and I got tired.

I now use the HRV4Training app - and walk 20 or 30km/week.

Hi yes I do feel better and know that I can do it I do feel a bit stiff tonight but I’m sure it’s all a big shock to my couch potatoe body but at the same time feeling energised sorry to here you was disabled it’s great that you then went on to walking I don’t know whatHRV4T is but I agree I will take things slow and gradually build up thanks for advise 😀
