What is your favorite form of physical exercise? – A good question from the Daily Writing prompt.
My favorite form of exercise would be basketball but I play very little of it now. The most common form of exercise I get now is walking outside or on the treadmill each day and some light weights. The heavy lifting is in the yard and house work.
I run after my grandchildren but after my knee gave out on my this past weekend playing soccer with the granddaughter I’ll take a pause. I fell and I’m moving a little slower since then. They also contribute to the weight lifting efforts. The little buggers keep getting heavier.
Staying in fairly good shape has been a goal I’ve stuck with in terms of keeping the right body weight. Only lately have I increased the volume of walking and weights and that feels good so I’ll continue.
I used to enjoy playing a lot of baseball when I was young. Several years of little league stuff. But I’ve spent the most time on a hoop court exercising than anything else by far. I wish I could get back to it.
