Fitness: Plantar Fasciitis Pointers

If you have plantar fasciitis (a painful condition that affects the tendon that connects the heel bone to the toes), you may want to try an aerobic workout that doesn't stress your foot, such as:

• An upper body cycle. It's basically a bike that you pedal with your arms, begin with just five to 10 minutes at a time.

• Water aerobics. Start with 30 to 45 minutes of deep water exercise like "water walking" with a flotation belt.

• Chair aerobics. This involves aerobic moves you can do seated. Look for DVDs and videos.
