Michele,
I agree with the vast majority of what has already been said. I’m not real old at 45, but certainly not as young as I use to be. I don’t lift heavy anymore and tone my workouts in a manor with exercise for life in mind. I do at least something everyday, even if it’s stretching only… do something.
I’ve stayed in pretty good shape, better than most my age, that I know. I combine weights (relatively light) and body weight exercises. Do what you can every day, remember that it took time to get into your current condition and will take time to recover or get better – don’t expect overnight miracles. So many times I’ve seen people set their short-term goals so high that its not realistic… they are then frustrated when the goals are not achieved.
I wish you the very best – good luck,
Mancw
