Hello, I'm new to the forums but not new to fibro.
I am, however, just starting to try to get into better shape and eat better to try and manage it better and just feel better overall. I've tried regular workout programs and have always ended up quitting because of pain.
I just bought the book Fibromyalgia Fitness, 12 Weeks To A Healthier You by Eric Suarez CPT. Has anyone else read it? I just did the first day's work out and it certainly is gentle enough (it seems to be yoga/stretch based) but there doesn't seem to be any cardio involved.
Should I not worry about that and just keep on with the program as is, or should I try to incorporate some gentle cardio? What do y'all do for cardio without triggering a flare? I really want to get into shape but I don't want to overdo it.
