bertracoon Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 I put my back out a few years ago and the physio advised me to do this as it helps strengthen the muscles around the base of the back. Have to admit I felt a bit of a plank doing this, but sometimes it's justifiable. Just. Also, can be used to help strengthen knee or ankle injuries. Also done it in the past and also felt like a dick doing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taffin Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 People who block the whole pavement when waiting for the bus. Wait in the bus stop for your tramp wagon and let other walk along the pavement. Also kids on the promenade weaving all about the place, it's a cycle and pedestrian route and their parents should be more aware. Kids in general. And parents.

ArcticJambo Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 Cyclists on the Promenade cycling far too fast. There are kids rightly walking/playing. When I originally lived down in Portobello in he late seventies cycling on the prom was forbidden. That rule should be re-introduced for adults. They czn cycle on the roads and scare motorists instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prom is plenty wide enough for all, yet you get mum and dad walking with 3 kids in a big line right across the whole thing whilst junior weaves back and forth on his scooter. They should just partition it like in Los Angeles or middle meadow walk, nice and clear and safe for all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohh, I agree with you on the line walking - that does my head in too, in fact, on any 'walkway' (wrt anymore than two abreast). To be fair, most cycists are decent on the prom but on busy days, of which there were many this summer, best to avoid the area until later in evening.
