Exercise since lowcarbing:

I started lowcarbing 6/24/03, when I weighed 278lb. For the first 6 or 7 months, I treadmilled it 3 times a week, and did 10 or so min of yoga, but that was all.

In March, when I got to 223 lb, I decided to try and add some weight training. I had concerns: I've had several minor back & shoulder injuries that I've managed to exacerbate in the past with weight work. I also fractured the little bone in my right arm in 1995, and when I do heavy lifting, the spot where that bone meets the elbow bothers me.

My LC program is Protein Power, and there was a link on their site to Fred Hahn's Serious Strength site, so I check that out. Slow execution- maybe I wouldn't hurt myself! Lower poundages- my right arm might behave! So I started that, twice a week, on 3/28/04. I also try to get 30 min of walking 2 or 3 times a week.
