In order to achieve any goal, one must think positively. Then be realistic with your goals by writing down steps that you can do within a given time frame. Be dedicated and don't let distractions worn you down.

Amy, there are some great bodyweight routines that I've seen people use that have concerns about injuries. You can get a 4-week program by signing up for my email list.

But I will share that while I defer to your phys therapist, my research indicated that squats and lunges are actually good for people with knee problems, when done correctly.

And Sandy, thanks for the comment. Good point about men! It's clear from watching your videos that strength doesn't need to come with bulk, even for men.

Hey Liz,

Great post! There are similar issues with some men. Not many of us want to look like a bodybuilder. Despite what you see in magazines. Kettlebells have allowed me to get very, very strong without bulk.

Liz do you know if TT has a beginner's routine that's better for people with knee pain? And/or lower back pain? My Phys Therapist tells me not to take up running again until we can address my "pelvic instability" which may be the cause of my lower back pain (and possibly knee pain). I guess I am wondering if there's a routine without a lot of lunges/squats (for now).

Anna, thanks so much! I agree that some of the images from the bodybuilding industry have influences women's opinions. I hope that posts like this one and the "Who's afraid of a little muscle" post will help change those opinions!

Hey Liz, it's amazing how many women still shy away from resistance training. We can probably blame part of this in the bodybuilding industry because they give a false impression that it's easy to get big, bulky muscles. You do a great job of explaining that it is a must and actually beneficial.

Great post!
