Any advice on how to restart exercising? I have a stiff back and pain in my feet sometimes, but I still work as a teacher. I stand and walk a lot at work. I have a YMCA membership but have not used in all winter. I am apprehensive of exercising and getting into muscle pain.

    Just go at your own pace. No need to injure yourself. Treadmill, elliptical, AMT trainer are all great exercise.

    We have a lot in common it seems. I am an elder teacher too who is just starting exercise. And clean eating :):)
