Found a cure for hip bursitis over the weekend

My family & I went camping over the weekend and the campground had a swimming pool & a water slide, which you had to climb hills to get to the slide & pool, especially the steep incline hill to the top of the slide. I realized after a day of walking the hills, the next 2 days, my hip felt much better. On Monday morning, my hip did not hurt at work. So walking up the steep incline hill to the water slide must have worked out my hip pretty good. So I got an idea of setting the incline high on my elliptical machine, may do my hip some good.

    I, too feel that walking hills and stairs helps my hips, but ellipticals seem to aggravate them.

    I hope my elliptical don't aggravate my hip. I had a treadmill but sold it after I got the elliptical because I have plantar physitis (spelled wrong) and the feet pounding on the floor of the treadmill made my heel & legs hurt.
