Re: Muscles, this is the new normal!

stretch your legs and ankles before going out since (I assume from what you wrote, correct me if I'm wrong!) you aren't used to that kind of exercise. I try to do 10-30 jumping jacks before doing anything physical too just to warm my muscles up a bit. I would try taking the easier uphill walk for a week or two so you can get used to it, then see if the steep uphill walk isn't a challenge. breathing-wise, try to breathe in through your nose, then out through your mouth at a steady rate. it's hard and it feels funny, but if you can train yourself to do it it will help in the long run.

also, your calves might be hurting because they're not used to the activity or because you haven't stretched properly, but I suspect the culprit may be your choice in footwear. I made the mistake of waiting two and a half years before replacing my running shoes, and by the end of that time, I would finish workouts with horrible calf pain. I assumed it was stretching issues but as soon as I switched shoes, the pain never came back.

additionally as others said, keep hydrated. drink a glass of water at breakfast if you don't already, and more never hurts. sorry for the looong response and good luck to you!
