I am 68 years old and in my 50's after losing my mother and my boys left home, I rode my bike, hiked 50 miles of the AT, worked with weights, did yoga and other classes at the Y and other gyms and I loved what it did for my body and mind. I have always worked 2 jobs but still managed to exercise during that time. I then lost sight in my left eye which affects my depth perception enough where I'm not comfortable bike riding any longer and inhibits my hiking. Then my husband's medical issues limited my time for exercise even more. Then I had wrist and rotator cuff surgery. I am pretty introverted and though I have equipment at home to work out, and my husband is better, I'm just not motivated to keep that up at home. I'm hoping a class situation will help motivate me and give me back some strength, tone and confidence I once had even as an older woman and now an even older one! :)
