When you move slowly? Sounds like muscle control. My legs shake sometimes if I go down the stairs slow & am wearing heels. You should do some exercise. No, you dont have to go to a gym - playing sports, hiking, walking the dog all are exercise, albeit different amounts and only one may not be all the exercise you need. I maintain myself by riding horses, which is REALLY good for leg & back strength. But you should tell your doctor, even if its just a quick phone call.
I tend to move slowly in the morning, otherwise I usually walk down the stairs very quickly. If I am walking slowly, I notice this shakiness.
Many of you are insinuating that I don't exercise, but I attempted to imply that I do with my second sentence. I typically exercise 3-5 hours a day for three days a week. My exercising actually tends to focus on the legs, so I don't see how they would be weak.
Is this not enough exercise? I tend to exercise a lot on Saturdays, and I've heard that it's not always healthy to do a lot of exercise one day of the week only. Should I add some mild exercise in between?
I think I will mention this to my doctor on my next visit...I'm just not sure when that will be.
It does sound like control then. Yoga might help, or Pilates, or just slow squats or something.
I have no idea if you exercise, which is why I suggested that you should. It is better to exercise in some way every day, though. Good idea to talk to your doc about it (thats what you pay them for ;-) ) but its not just the amount of exercise, its how you do it. For example, on the treadmill really fast works your body differently than at a high incline. Your doctor, or your gym trainer, could help schedule you the most useful regimen. Good luck!
IIN for your leg muscles to shake when walking down the stairs?
