Everyone here is really inspiring me to get started again. I need to lose about 100 lbs. One thing I read about in a spark people exercise article and try to do is move my arms about to get my heart rate up. I have sore feet and can't run or walk much. When I add waving my arms about and punching along with stepping or walking, I work up a sweat and get the pulse racing 3x faster than just marching or jogging along. I need to force myself to do it every day. It gets boring. Looking up exercises vs. calories burnt,I found shadow boxing is one of the best. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, but it breaks the monotony.
