http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/1133/subjects/1051 <p>A few weeks ago I had a problem with my achilles tendon and was told no exercise for at least 2-3 weeks.&nbsp; I've been resting it for 2 weeks now and am itching to get back out.&nbsp; Any recommendations on easing back into it, I was only doing brisk walking when the problems started, doing about 6mph and 4-5miles at a time in a hilly area with 15-20 degree inclines.&nbsp;</p> en-us <p>The hills aren't really optional, but maybe taking it slower.&nbsp; I mostly walk around my neighbourhood which is a hilly area.&nbsp;</p> sheppeyescapee Sun, 15 Feb 2009 15:29:47 -0800 http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/1133/subjects/1051 2787 <p>You should always follow the Dr's recommendations.&nbsp; Having said that (and no, I don't practice what I preach), I think going out for moderate walks would be okay - but stick to level ground (no hills.)&nbsp; I think the hills would just aggravate your injury.&nbsp; You may want to consider a treadmill (yeah, boring I know) to avoid the potential rock/pothole/stick/whatever.</p> TriNorm Mon, 09 Feb 2009 01:54:45 -0800 http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/1133/subjects/1051 2704 <p>6 miles per hour is a little fast. That's a jog for most and a run for me.</p> mrxinu Sun, 08 Feb 2009 19:39:25 -0800 http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/1133/subjects/1051 2703
