I was off my regular exercise due to a knee problem. Been meaning to due some weights, but never got around til recently.. Very glad I did, and no impact on the knee.

HI - just joined in. I was doing weights with a CrossFit gym - then cancer and now chemotherapy. I've lost a lot of muscle plus developed some balance issues. These exercises are perfect to regain my strength. Thank you!
