ray, that's fantastic... the problem people seem to have is that they are not satisfied doing a very small bit of exercise and doing it regularly. we all remember what we used to do so we think we are failures if we cannot to as we once did. so..we don't do anything. 3 minutes each day for a few weeks is better than 20 minutes one day and stopping for 6 months because you over-did. keep up the great work. you will be amazed at how your strength will increase if you stick with that three minutes a day for awhile... maxine ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To sign-off Parkinsn send a message to: mailto:[log in to unmask] In the body of the message put: signoff parkinsn
