This is reagrding my mother, after my little brother was born, she had put on alot of weight, so for as long as i can remember shes been on and off of diets, but theyde only be tempoaray results. Last year she signed up to a gym and starting working out daily doing weights and cardio classes.. from the weights, she got a small hernia on her wrist, so she had to stop, and unfortunatly gained the weight back... Im going to be visiting her for 3 weeks and i was thinking maybe she can try to get back into it kuz ive been driven, and maybe i can rub off on her.. Now, if i got her to sign up to FT.com, and got a program, would she be able to mark her wrists as an injury, thus not training her upper body and still get results? She's been trying to lose the excess fat for so long and i want to try and help as much as possible.. thanx..

Since she can't bulk being a women she could work lower body and lower body is the problem area for women and also where all people will get greatest gains and results, she'll burn a ton just on legs! I don't know if you have paid attention to your body but no workout does what lower body days do too you, burn more and longer to recover!

If so she can see a Dr and they can remove the fluid, but it might come back again over time. I had one but it didn't cause any pain even though I read they can.
