Not really. I add in the walking because we don't have enough fencers able to meet and play every day... and I want exercise every day. Fast walking is a great way to increase lung function and stamina, but the interval training of fencing daily would be better. I know that at 68 years old, it takes more work to get the body back up to peak condition, I'm still rebuilding after a 15yr lay-off, and I want to be really healthy when I die.
