There is tremendous value in moving more and engaging in exercise . And the more meaningful your movement is to you and your goals , the more likely you are to stick with it . The first step is to start — literally take a step ! You aren ’ t going to go from A to Z overnight . And that ’ s okay . In fact , that ’ s how it should be . Small steps make for sustainable progress . Aim for progress , not perfection . Something is always better than nothing . And it ’ s never too late — you ’ re never too far along in life or in Parkinson ’ s to make a positive change . What can you do today ?
Where Do I Go from Here ?
“ Exercise is medicine . Because of the way I exercise , I was able to decrease how many levodopa pills I needed each day for the last few years . If you put in the effort , exercise becomes part of your Parkinson ’ s treatment . Exercise is movement . And movement is medicine .”
Richard Huckabee
