I hated that because the water exercise is excellent for me.Glendanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-59407856312971395952012-02-07T19:45:48.300-05:002012-02-07T19:45:48.300-05:00I'm glad to know that one of the ways of preve...I'm glad to know that one of the ways of preventing Alzheimer's is to get plenty of cardio exercise. I participate in water exercise classes three days a week at the YMCA. We not only get a cardiovascular workout, but we also do muscle toning. You might want to look into that. Did you know that because of the resistance water offers, you get more of a workout than you do on land?Abbie Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251937445976896173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-91347780990633645012012-02-06T23:06:56.587-05:002012-02-06T23:06:56.587-05:00I love that, Abbie.

I'm sure she loved having you there to help her.<br />I received an email tonight on ways to prevent Alzheimer's disease.<br />I do most of the things they said to do, but I don't get lots of cardio exercise. I have reasons which might also be excuses, but I think most of it is in the genes.Glenda Beallhttp://www.glendacouncilbeall.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-27195363526668946992012-02-03T18:01:26.111-05:002012-02-03T18:01:26.111-05:00It's true that some people are resilient until...It's true that some people are resilient until the very end. I knew a lady at the nursing home where I worked who lived to be a hundred and was still as sharp as a tack. She used a wheelchair to get around, but every once in a while, she got up out of that wheelchair and gave me a hug.Abbie Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251937445976896173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160021015821033799.post-54656526530143315482012-01-29T16:31:02.060-05:002012-01-29T16:31:02.060-05:00DJan,
