I ran for many years but not much in tbe last 15. I think that hiatus saved my joints. I also bought a Wieder sliding weight bench (a Total Gym Knock off). It was the perfect machine fi5r me. I had some scar tissue from various i juries that didnt heal well that i rehabbed. I was able to "break" some old scar tissue and regain some strength and rangr of motion. The added muscle definitely helped with burning of some fat. I was able to stop taking blood pressure meds. My blood cholesterol levels have amways been good but my HDL's were a little high.

So I need to hit the bench agsin too.
