Productive! (I’m just starting to move here on the west coast :-)

Omg, how do you handle an hour walk? I get bored after 15 minutes.

I am trying to start working out again. I'm at ground 0. Does anyone have any suggestions or exercises to build up stamina when walking/jogging and building up arm muscles?

If you enjoy walking and jogging you could always add some light wrist weights? That’s an easy way to start. And makes it super simple to increase the weight. Mine have little pouches for increased weight.

Artchick

The best thing you can do to build your walking/jogging stamina is to start easy, and slowly increase both distance (or time) and speed. I see you have back issues, so maybe keep the weights separate for a while and use them for arm strength while supporting your core.

I'm surprised there are games that cost less than $20 to play. Is this a new feature?

They were doing it a few years back when I first joined, I use them as add-ons sometimes but I messed up this time cos my other game weighed in on Monday!

Artchick

They’ve always allowed games of any dollar amount, though they’re usually run by other players-like me!
Surprised about PayPal. I’d contact support, because I’m pretty sure it should work.
