[quote=Anonymous]Mid 40s, female, 5'8" and 160 lbs. I'm not really looking to lose weight - dropping 10 lbs or so would be a nice side benefit to getting in shape, but it's not my primary goal. I mainly want to build strength and stamina, and improve overall health metrics (cholesterol, blood pressure, etc). My 12yo kicked my butt rock climbing last month, and I want to get him back lol! I would love to work out 4-5 days a week, but it just isn't happening. Is it totally unrealistic to hope for some gains in physical abilities if I get a good hour of heavy weights in 2x per week? I can usually sneak in a brisk 20-minute walk or something another once-ish per week, but getting really sweaty isn't an option (think: lunch break at work, when I need to be in a conference room immediately after). I'm hoping that this effort isn't all for naught..... [/quote]
