If you have ever had surgery, chances are exercise has been part of your recovery process. Depending on the type of surgery, exercise is typically used to help you return to pre-operative activities.

Treadmills are often used at home to save time and avoid the expense of going to a gym or club. A treadmill can be set up in front of the television or you can plug it into your headphones. The greatest attraction of a home treadmill is being able to exercise whenever you want, regardless of the weather outside.

A treadmill has a wide belt that is stretched over a bed and around two or more rollers. The treadmill cushioning absorbs the force of your step so you want to get good cushioning to lower the impact on your joints and ligaments. There are two types of frames - aluminum and steel; steel is heavier than expensive aluminum, which potentially increases stability but steel (not aluminum) may also rust or corrode from exposure to sweat.

Orange County California has some wonderful places to take our small fry for some good old-fashioned outdoor fun-it always been that way. When my sister and I were growing up in Los Alamitos, my mom would take us to several beaches and parks on a regular basis. When my kids were growing up, I took them to the same great spots. And now, my grandchildren will get to do the same! Okay, one isn’t born yet, and the other is a mere seven months old, but I think you can see that when you have “an oldie, but a goodie”-they’re going to keep being around generation after generation!
