Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Patty: MHO and experience has been that after I do the cardio on sore muscles, I actually feel better. IF I can support myself on those fatigued muscles, then I gopher it. I tend to run and I will confess that the first round (5-6 minutes) is pretty tense, but the muscles warm up and get the hang of it after that. Good luck and really good job on working them like that--you hit your 10's! lil >From: alimo13@... >Reply-bodyforlifeegroups >bodyforlifeegroups >Subject: A question for the group >Date: Thu, 2 Nov 2000 15:26:17 EST > >I have a question for all you experienced BFLr's.

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 Hi Patty! Assuming yours is normal muscle soreness, let me mention the following based on my experience, and my wife's. We do sometimes experience dramatic muscle soreness the day after switching our weight exercises around. But we go ahead and do the cardio anyway. Frequently, especially by starting at a slower pace (which is normal for the 20 minute aerobics solution), it's amazing how quickly the muscles will loosen up. Often this will translate into greater flexibility following the aerobics. But sometimes stiffness will return. :-) So in general, I would recommend going ahead with the cardio. Feel pride in having worked your muscles so thoroughly with the weights! Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 2, 2000 Report Share Posted November 2, 2000 You can do it. Just remember the little train and keep chanting - I KNOW I CAN, I KNOW I CAN, I KNOW I CAN (that is until you run out of breath and have to salvage all the air you can get to keep pumping!) >>> alimo13@... 11/02/00 03:52PM >>> Thanks for all your tips....I'm heading to the gym to attempt my cardio - Wish me luck, I'll let you know how it goes.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 I have a question that may or may not be HIV related. Myself, and a small group of friends and acquaintances, have been suffering from a very strange problem. It goes something like this, and I'll phrase it from my perspective. I'm going along, and then I start to feel a bit light headed. Then it progresses to a feeling that I'm going to pass out. Lying down helps, but then I break out into a sweat. Until I break the sweat, it's hard to communicate, both talking and hearing. It always passes in 5-10 minutes, and after breaking the sweat I feel fine. I've been dealing with this since for the past 30 years, always very sporadically. Now a very close friend is also experiencing an increased frequency in these episodes. He is currently undergoing a battery of tests, including a sonogram for his heart, stress tests, etc. I've been through just about every test (granted these occurred a few years back) and we can't find anything that would cause/trigger these episodes. We all seem to experience very similar experiences. So I'm putting it out there for the very experienced and knowledgeable group. My friend is going to be visiting in May so he's trying to get all his testing done before he arrives. I'm more than appreciative of any insights, and feel free to respond off list if that's more appropriate. **************Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.
