I want to work on my arms, upper back and leg muscles. If it was warm, I'd be shooting my recurve bow and that's an arm and whole back exercise in itself when you're putting 2 to 300 arrows in a target but it's too cold outside for my bow (it's made of a lightweight wood that would warp too easily coming in and going outside, at only 16# draw)
My goals are really to get my draw weight up to 35#s on my bow (legal hunting weight limit) and put on muscle. I HAVE to get off of a specific medication and my Dr is working with me on that currently, and I'm very happy with her plan. She said as long as I come off and don't continue to lose weight like I have been, my goals are fine as far as working out. I've had bloodwork done, and nothing is indicating why I've lost so much weight.
I know a lot of you want to lose weight, but I really need to gain weight. I'm 5'9 with a BMI of 15.5. That's so totally NOT HEALTHY either that it's ridiculous. Being under a 100 pounds at my height has my heartrate jacked up, but my blood sugar and pressure continue to be in the perfect/slightly low/but excellent range. My cholesterol (both kinds) are in the perfect range, so my Dr feels like it's the medication causing the weight loss. And my thyroid and iron and ferratin levels are all fine, perfectly in the middle of normal range, so none of those are causing the problem.
It's frustrating trying to workout, but not even having the energy to hardly get out of bed and do normal things, let alone put a workout in there somewhere.
