  1. I am in my early 50s. Due to injuries I have bad arthritis in my knees. After going through a hysterectomy and finishing chemo/radiation a few years back I started putting on a lot of weight which just made my knees worse. I cannot even walk around the store without my knees really giving me a fit (I have to use the scooters now). I am under a weight restriction now as to what I can lift/carry (25 lbs max) since that surgery. I want to lose weight and get healthy and get all this extra weight off my knees. What are the best strength training tips from starting in a chair? (I am already losing weight slowly just based on my eating)
