    This month we are all sharing lots of information around exercise and how to stay motivated.

     

    But for some, exercise is unenjoyable or difficult for several reasons.

     

    In this thread you can share with other members why exercise can be a challenge for you, maybe you will get some handy tips from others who have the same issue or perhaps, share the little incidental things (gardening, housework and walking up your stairs) you do to try and make getting active achievable for you.

     

    If you have any questions on how you can add exercise into your life when you don't find it enjoyable or perhaps it's difficult, put the question in our Exercise Physiologist thread and Clare will be in to answer your questions at the end of August.

    It is hard for me to exercise as I have a dislocated knee plus arthritis and spinal issues. I am type 2 diabetic and trying to lose weight I am eating healthy but it's hard when I can't do a lot of exercise. I use a wheelchair outside of home and a walker in the home
