It takes surprisingly little time to effectively strength train, but it does take a great deal of effort. The benefits are well worth a fraction of an hour a week.

Most of the information out there is downright dangerous, especially for older people. You can add muscle and strength without subjecting your joints to punishment. Your appearance and functional ability will improve. See Body by Science by Dr. Doug McGuff for more information than anyone could want on how to do it.

I was quite active till Covid took over. I was able to play softball throughout the summer but all the gyms were closed.

Then a severe shoulder injury that required surgery mid October put an end to what activity I was taking part in.

Been going to physical therapy three times a week since November but now that gyms are open, I lost all motivation to use them...........Lost motivation to do most things these days.
