Recommend a low-impact exercise that works

[MegBusset]

I've been getting back into exercise but having to take a break from running because I have a crap pelvic floor and my bladder gets sore and irritated.

Can't do swimming regularly as the chlorine gives me thrush

What low-impact exercise could I do that burns some calories and makes a difference to fitness? Pilates or something else?

Walking.

Definitely spin classes. I too have pelvic floor issues and do spin, step classes on low impact options and Pilates.

Walking. Leslie Sansone has a bunch of free videos on Youtube. They are oddly relaxing.

Spin. I'm a runner too, and when I've had to take a break due to injury, spin is the only non-impact exercise that's kept my fitness up.

Pilates - excellent for strengthening the pelvic floor and core.

Yoga with Adriene

Have just got into exercising after a break and started with walking that has made a huge difference to my general fitness. I'll go out of a mile walk during my lunch break and Lesley Sansone and Up to the Beat YouTube routines too.

Indoor rowing. Really low impact and works so many different muscles.

Gillian Michaels ‘yoga’.

Thanks, lots of great ideas here.

I love walking (average 4 miles a day) so that's already in the mix but looking for something that feels like it's burning a bit more!

Will look into spin and pilates and see if I can find a class near me.

Did do rowing when I had a gym membership a while back but I found it quite boring, I need something with a bit of variety in a half-hour workout ideally!

I do my own besides walking ... a bit of cycling and some cross training & some weights for strength at the Gym.

An other good workout is walking up/ down stairs for 15 - 20 minutes.

Barre or pilates
