[quote=Anonymous]Strength training isn't going to make you thin, but it can make you strong and show you all the cool things your body can do. There are all different ways you can do this, from body weight exercises to kettlebells and dumbbells, machine weights, barbells. The important thing is finding a program and sticking to it, which can be as little as 20 minutes a day three days a week, and you will get results. You might talk to your doctor or a PT about whether there is anything you should avoid potentially because of joint issues, but it's not the case that you wouldn't be able to lift. If you want to do this from home, you can look for body weight fitness programs. There are lots of reasons to want to not go to a gym, but if one of them is that you think people will look at you negatively, that is probably unlikely -- it's a self-conscious place for a lot of people, and mostly people are just focusing on themselves. Trainers can get you set up on their circuit of weight machines, which can be a good option. They may also try to sell you a bunch of sessions, which isn't necessarily bad, if you find it motivating, but just because it feels hard doesn't mean it's any more effective than something you could get for free.
