HI SUE My personal trainer worked out the series of exercises altho he had not previously worked w/ a PWP. For me it works - most of them can be done @ home but my will power is WEAK and I need his motivation to complete the set. Sometimes we use some of their equip but mostly not. It's how you do them not what you use. Walking & golf are excellant exercises. I too am not going to let the PD win!! My daughter's MIL was diaagnosed in same year as me but she just went home & sat!! She's in a wheel chair & needs assistance w/ everything & she's a yr or 2 younger than me!! I have always been active and u/stand how important exercise is. I added Amantadine/Symmetrel to the eldepryl this past April so I took only the eldepryl for 2 l/2 yrs. In the winter I do my training 3 times week but in golf weather only go once in a while (if it rains 2 or 3 days) or I notice I'm getting stiff. MARY E SANFORD [log in to unmask]
