I wish I could say my workouts improve my numbness. At age 74, my strength has definitely diminished due in part to our location (a senior facility). This place has a room they call the Fitness Room and the best thing I can say about that is it has a couple of recumbent bikes. They actually had zero weights until we moved in and that was only because I figured with the money we spend to live here, the least they can do is provide the equipment for seniors to stay healthy!
Because of the neuropathy, I find it extremely difficult to do anything for my legs. When I did do squats even with the light dumbbells they have, my legs hurt for days. The only way I get any leg workout at all is on the bike.
Bottom Line: getting old is harder than having a baby!
