45 and a busted knee, 1 month update

Hi all,

About a month ago I posted that i was starting over with physical fitness at 45, after a sedentary decade and with a busted knee. I could do 1 pushup at the time, and my form wasn't great.

Well, I figured a one month update was worth doing. I bought a bike a few weeks ago, and not only has that done wonder for rehabbing my knee, which is almost back to normal again, but it also helped me lose 4 kilos, or about 8 pounds in the last month, as well as go from 1 pushup to being able to do 9 in a single set (only 4 in the second set though, but i'm working on it).

Anyway, I thought i'd pass it along. On monday of next week (as i'm travelling this week) i'm going to start going to the gym so I can start practicing my pullups (or rows to begin with I suspect), have a warm place to do my DDP Yoga, and generally get my exercise on.

Thank you all, 4 kilos down, approximately 39 to go.
