I have heel spurs but there is also something else wrong going on but being I have no insurance candt go to a pediotrist ... any suggestions are welcome and appreciated.

    i really like using a balance ball and a cardio video for that (you can get a set with ball, weights and dvd for like 25 dollars at WM or target...) also, if you ever get bored with that video, there are a TON of videos on youtube for using a balance ball or exercise ball, so you won't get bored. it gives you some easy but effective strength training, but also helps you break a sweat. it looks silly at first, but some of that stuff is hard! its like yoga, how it focuses on core strength. HTH! :heart:

    a good toning(maily) DVD series is the "Aerobic Striptese" from carmen electra. They are pretty low impact no jumping and running around,
