5. EXERCISE VARIABLES

10. RESISTANCE TRAINING
• Can you offer some good cross training exercises to
complement my primary activity—mountain biking [running]?
• How do you determine the correct weight? I tend to overdo it

exercise to weight training that is considered best practice?
• What are the benefits of regular strength training as we age?
• Are squats OK? What about if I have bad knees, osteoarthritis,

• What are some good upper body exercises that specifically
work the tricep area that do not require a machine?
• What is a good exercise other than lifting weights to build
muscle?
• What weight should I start back at if I have been away from
