[quote=Anonymous]Pre-pandemic I was great at weight training, not lifting very heavy, but doing lots of upper body exercises mostly. After the pandemic I have yet to get back to the gym regularly, so most of my exercise is walking. I'm 47 and am concerned about bone density, but I'm reluctant to try free weights again because of very painful wrist tendonitis in my dominant side that flares up with lifting things around 30 lbs (cat litter, things at work, etc.). Should I start light - like 5 lbs and try weights and see how my wrist holds up? Would resistance bands be enough or a better place to start? Or should I learn how to use the weight machines at the gym? Any videos or links to suggested exercise routines are welcome too. [/quote]
