I have lost 25 and a half pound since January having gained an obscene amount of fat after (FUCK) cancer & chemo and compensating with cake & chocolate & ice cream etc.
Weightwatchers is the basis on 19 points then walking treadmill x4 weekly 4.4-6.0 over twelve mins with incline, then 'Kilimanjaro' on recline bike again over ten - twelve mins then a variety of weights machines (not sure of their names!). The one working hamstrings, then glutes, then fixed row, then shoulder lifts, all with increasing by small amounts of weight weekly.
I'm having a bionic knee fitted in September (Osteo-Arthritis) so can't do much which involves weightbearing but am very keen to strengthen the muscles involved in post-op progress. Also swimming. LOVE IT especially now I have a waterproof MP3 (The Dolphin) and I just roll out the lengths to music.
Anybody have any extra suggestions, oh I'm 63 now and bursting with life, energy, smugness!!
