I am just not able to do either. The weights put me in such horrific pain afterwords. And cardio was causing me to not just crash but black out as well. I am so glad you can do it though. Yeah, I haven't heard many people who have our illness being able to do the GET. I tried and my doctors finally told me no weights and not cardio. Just walking slowly, 2-3 times a week for up to 20 minutes, that's it. I am not consistent because of repeated flareup but I do try to do it as often as I can. I seem to be more consistent with it in the summer months. I lived in Phoenix, AZ for a year and the dry heat helped me so much that I could do a little more walking.
