Hi i'm new with a question

cancersue64 Posts: 6 Joined: 2004/03/27	2004/03/27, 07:53 AM Hi I cannot do the pushups that are suggested in my profile or the dip downs. I have quite a few injuries ;but do work out. If I could get something that works almost if not just as good ; I would be able to do them instead. I also want to say hi and state that alot of my weight gain has been due to medications over the last few years. I also want to say hi to everyone and thanks in advance for any information that I can get. My name is Susan and I'm going on 40 so I am getting very depressed over the weight gain.:dumbbell::big_smile::love:to all!

The best way to combat this is weight lifting, cardiovascular exercise and eating a healthy, balanced diet. You will find a lot of info about all of those things here, as well as a great support system! The important thing is that you start moving more and don't look back! -------------- If you fall down seven times, get up eight.
