I think someone mentioned to me that Pred makes the calf muscles shorter. Haven't read that anywhere though, so dunno about the accuracy of that. Streching would probably be a good thing for all of us.
To get myself motivated to excercise I got myself a laziness tracker, a Fitbit Flex. i guess the correct term is activity tracker, but dunno... Wanted something to motivate me to move more, as I wasn't allowed to do anything else except some light walks when I got out of the hospital.. I probably mentioned this before though. Anyway, it tracks my steps and if you remember to put it into sleep mode at night it will also track how long you slept. You can use the app on your phone to mark other excercise, and for instance what you have eaten (if you set a goal for yourself if will subtract the amount of calories you have burned from the ones you have eaten).
I can see this info then on their webpage, like this is my Monday and how many steps I took:
So I woke up at midnight and 4 am, and looks like I took a nap around 16:00.. As I said its my laziness tracker
