Hey there!
I've been DDRing for about two years now, and I love it to death. I'm stuck between trick and maniac right now, and lately i've been trying to play really seriously in hopes of losing weight. The only real problem is that I have arthritis in my right ankle, and after only about 15 minutes of play, it gets all stiff and swollen up.
No matter what I do, it's always this way. I usually take advil or other anti-inflammatories beforehand, stretch, flex the joints that are troubled, etc beforehand... But even if I play on basic, I can only go for 20 minutes max before my ankle gives out.
Does anyone else here have arthritis? Any tips!? *begs* Thankies. ^_^
