I like to walk, it helps encourage the whole daydreaming thing you know? Did this all my life.

Problem is my legs and feet disagree. Occasionally the weather too.

Any suggestions? Whenever we had that massive snowstorm thing where I was stuck inside for a couple weeks I was getting kinda “edgy” or something not being able to daydream about stuff.

    I dont have any advice, I would juat like to say I misread the title as Austin Powers Walk and thought you were asking how to walk around naked with foreground elements covering your junk comedically without walking.

    I’m guessing it won’t work but just in case: swimming is often suggested as a low impact exercise for people with joint issues. It’s way harder to find a place to swim (especially in winter) than a place to walk, but I thought I’d mention on the off chance it would be helpful

        Would an elliptical trainer with hand grips be better maybe? I enjoy that you can sorta let your legs rest and it’s easier on your joints if you can switch to using arm strength for a while. I can sympathize since recently acquiring a dog that wants to spring down the street for hours a day and my legs / feet hurt too much sometimes to be up to the task. Maybe a rowing machine would be easier since you’re in a sitting position and mainly use upper body?
