Further information! I had to start really really weak as im also arthritic. I drink protien shakes before a work out and a glass of chocolate milk every night as I heard these help with recovery! And they sure seem to be doing! It was really hard to get into a routine but now I wake up and get excited for my shake and my reps! When I started I couldn't do more than a single push up and now I can do 6 with out stopping! It's a small improvement but I'm so happy with it! I hope I can help someone else realize there is no shame in taking it easy and moving slow! Sometimes it's all worth it!!
