My New Home Gym — In a Box

]]> I went to Wal-Mart the other night to look for some 5-lb. ankle weights to continue doing my knee exercises at home. My physical therapy sessions are winding down (only 3 more), but I don’t want my knee to be injured again. So prevention is key.

I found some ankle weights … and something else. This dumbbell set caught my eye. I don’t know what’s happened to my upper arms over the years, but they look like tree trunks. Nary a muscle in sight. So I’m going to add some bicep curls and arm exercises to see if I can tone up — and quit all that jiggling when I wave. haha.

Lucky for me — this set comes with a 30-minute Strength and Toning DVD. So hopefully, I’ll pick up a few moves and then be able to work out on my own. I put my ankle weights and dumbbells in a plastic box on a shelf in my closet. Is it possible to tone up at home without a fancy schmancy personal trainer? We’ll soon see. Anybody got any tips?
