🚶‍♀️ Unpopular opinion alert: Relying solely on walking as your exercise routine typically isn't enough... especially if you have MS.

While walking is definitely a beneficial part of the puzzle for improving mobility, it's important to incorporate two other components for a well-rounded approach to improving your mobility & movement.

1. Functional Strength Training

Functional strength training exercises helps build muscle in specific muscle groups, improves balance, and enhances overall strength. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with MS, as it can help counteract muscle weakness and fatigue.

2. Flexibility and Balance Exercises:

Integrating flexibility and balance exercises into your regimen can help improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and enhance stability.

These exercises can help prevent falls and improve functional mobility in everyday activities.

By incorporating these additional components into your exercise routine, you can address a broader range of fitness needs and optimize your overall health and well-being.

Remember, it's essential to consult with a healthcare provider or physical therapist to develop a personalized exercise plan that suits your individual needs and abilities.
