Cardio/resistance training (but not weights) for health

Yes keep going! I started doing some resistance training with weights as I believe it will stand to me over the years. Plus as you mention, exercise helps with sleep. Between the metcon class on sat morning and a few cardio/weights/hillwalking sessions during the week, it feels great to choose an active, healthy lifestyle with less alcohol consumption and better diet.

Thanks for the encouragement! I use a variety of DVDs and exercise in my basement as I live a few miles out of town and prefer this. I'm not working for muscle, but toning and keeping up my strength for my age. I do this in the morning, at least 30 minutes and have just started to walk (in the basement) in the evenings after dinner for about 30 minutes. Now with warmer weather coming, I will try to walk outdoors to get the fresh air and exercise together. If I lose a few pounds, it won't hurt my feelings a bit. HaHa
