[QUOTE="patooyee, post: 548619, member: 483"] I've got bad knees, bad back, shin splints when I run (I know I don't run right, but I hate running in general anyway.), tendonitus in my elbows. Despite all this, I recognize that I am overweight and need to lose and I do have genuine desire to get exercise of SOME sort. Back in college I swam a lot. I really enjoyed it. Ironically, there are no pools to swim where I live because of the beaches. But I live just far enough away from the beach that I can't just go there every day to swim. I also don't want to get eaten by a bull shark or towed out to sea by a rip tide. I also played racquetball nearly every day which is part of why I have bad knees and elbows now and can't continue doing it. I enjoy biking some but have yet to find a comfortable seat for my fat ass. After about a mile I feel like I have been anally raped by a 700 lbs gorilla. I've tried about 6 different seats so far, all recommended by different bike shops. Plus, to get anywhere by bike where I live you have to bike Hwy. 98 which is a death wish. Literally everyone who bikes 98 regularly has died. Probably one of my favorites is hiking in the woods. But the closest significant place to woods-hike to me is an hour away and flat pine forests do get boring after a while. (We have no hills in FL.) I walk everywhere I can whenever I can. Even that is a risk anywhere near Hwy. 98 though. Just a couple months ago a walker was hit and seriously injured at the entrance of my neighborhood. Anyone got ideas? My work schedule if FUBAR. Most days I start around 7am and get off close to 11pm, no breaks between. Whatever I do will have to be extremely early in the morning or late at night. I'll have to adjust my sleep patterns.
