She had to run to make her back feel better. I've never heard of that before. http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136378Mon, 06 Feb 2012 17:12:39 GMTLNW reminded me that I had a friend who had bad back pain.

I mean how many people have you read on these fitness forums complain that stepping hurts their knees ? both Cathe and Kelly do lots of stepping,http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136374Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:40:44 GMTmy knees and lower back pain me when I run - oh, how I love that runners high, so I'm in the "can't run" category .. Barre hurts my knees and sciatica too and I get pretty much the same sort of high as running with that ..

If high impact is not bothering you then you do not need to stop. If you need to limit the intensity and duration of certain forms of high impact (eg jump rope but not running) then do so.

If I could afford it, I would take spinning. http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136351Mon, 06 Feb 2012 10:45:09 GMTI feel high impact being hard on the joints is based on individual results. I still include some throughout my routine since I feel it's important for bone strength as I age. (We're the same age, btw). That said:  I'm a true believer in speed walking.http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136338Mon, 06 Feb 2012 07:14:34 GMTWell, like I said, I'm no expert, this is just what seems to make sense to me.  I'm sure there are others who would disagree.http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136328Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:17:21 GMTThank you for the reassurance, Vantreesta. I have always believed that impact is important for the bones, but as I get older I just don't want to injure myself. I agree with you that stretching is key.http://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136327Sun, 05 Feb 2012 20:04:36 GMTWell, some people run for decades and never have serious or prolonged joint pain.  I think impact should be varied, as well as intensity, and time should be taken when recovery is needed, but impact is good for the bones.  Also a chiropractor I took a clhttp://www.collagevideo.com/forum/fb.ashx?m=136324Sun, 05 Feb 2012 19:54:10 GMTI am 51.

I actually previewed PCC last night. And congrats on completing it and surviving :) Just a question...I don't think I have Cardio Abs. Do you have the deluxe set?
