I started Pulmonary rehab back in March and it has been going really well. There was a little pause in April for the 9 days that I was hospitalized for an exacerbation, but when I got home I picked right back up. I love PR. It's great to have a motivation for getting off my bum and exercising. I feel stronger physically. I notice that finally have some muscle tone in my arms which I don't think I have ever had. I can walk longer distances now than I could before. And I have met some great people along the way. I am by far the youngest person at PR, but there is still something that we all have in common, and that makes us friends. The staff is wonderful too. I attend three times a week; Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Tues and Thurs we work on on the equipment, and on Fridays we do Chair Cardio exercises and alternate weekly between weighs and tension bands. The chair workouts are not what you would expect them to be. They are quite the workout, and then after the workouts we have group discussions. These are my favorite days because two classes are combined so we get to see everyone.
Well that's all for this post. I am sure I will post more sometime soon.
