[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 40, been overweight my whole life. My goal right now is just to get stronger so I’m doing personal training plus a group class three times a week.

When will I first notice a difference? I know it’s a very long term goal but trying to set my expectations correctly and I just have no idea how soon I would see any noticeable change especially at my age. [/quote]
Dear op is you are into this just to get stronger, what difference are you trying to see? That you can lift 30 lbs instead of 10?[/quote]

Op here. I want to to be easier to get up off the floor from playing with my kids. Less stiffness after sitting on the floor with them. Better flexibility. Things like that.[/quote]

OP, I lift pretty regularly and still find that I have to stretch/focus on mobility. Have you seen those challenges where you sit cross legged and then get up with no hands? Might be good to try it so you can see your “before.”[/quote]

I haven’t but will try it! Won’t be the most graceful of moves. 😂[/quote]
