Jeri: I'm changing tghe way I work out. For a long time now I've focused on three machines, or sometimes a fourth. I try to strengthen specific muscles. For a long time, it was to try to strength my legs and improve my balance. What I've found it is the other muscle groups that need regular exercise, like my biceps, arms and shoulders lose strength. I've talked it over with the personal trainer at Planet Fitness and he has encouraged me not to spend ten or 15 minutes on countless sets, each with 20-25 reps. I'm now changingto doing five or six machines when I go, with fewer reps and sets. I think that will work better.

Good for you. Most people do little or no organized
exercise.
