"I have to lose weight but my feet are bad and I am having trouble walking especially when you have to be on your feet to make a living. Any weight lifting chair exercise you can recommend if any? Thanks for you help."--- Elsa F., Hackettstown, NJ
Hi, Elsa. Thank you so much for your question. I moved this question to the top of the list because, at one time or another, so many folks, myself included, run into some sort of problem with our feet. I know all too well how a job that forces you to remain upright for the better part of your time on the clock can cause your poor, tired dogs to not just bark but howl at the end of your workday. While you are working on getting yourself down to fighting weight, you might want to ask your doctor about inserts for your shoes. I can tell you from experience they can be a game changer.
You are right that excess weight will exacerbate the discomfort your job causes your feet. Taking the initiative to lose weight is commendable and you are smart to be using strength training as it is a more efficient way to burn calories than traditional calorie and putting on lean muscle mass will elevate your metabolism all day long. Good on you for even asking this question.
