[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here and I should have clarified, my frame is small and BMI is in the low range of normal (19-20) so my doctor doesn’t want me to lose weight. She recommended strength training over aerobic activity and focusing on muscle gain. I’m on the cusp of osteoporosis now and don’t want to be a frail old woman.[/quote] Then I would balance weight lifting with yoga to work on your balance and flexibility while building muscle. 2-3 days of lifting and 1-2 days of yoga sounds good. Maybe mix it up to keep things interesting. Make sure you’re eating enough to fuel your workouts. You don’t have much cushion.[/quote]
