[quote=Anonymous]I am nearly 50 and keep hearing that strength training is so important for women my age, and usually people mean weightlifting. But I'm scared to lift weights because I'm hypermobile and get injured easily. It's also really hard logistically for me to get to a gym. I do Hatha or Vinyasa yoga about 4 days a week at home (after many years of a studio practice). Yoga, pilates, walking, and swimming are the only exercises I've ever been able to do as an adult where I could sustain the exercise consistently without injury. I am pretty toned. So am I already doing strength training? Or am I supposed to be lifting big heavy weights?[/quote]
