Working out at the local gym?

[Guest guest]

Hubby and I joined the local gym. Today was our first day.

I have been told by doctors not to do weight bearing exercises.

So I did some of the non weight bearing things that I could on

cardio machines and then went into the pool and swam some laps.

I have read so many different stories as to where this kind of exercise is good

and others say it is bad for us with CMT.

Please tell me your thoughts and experiences with going to the gym and

exercising. Is it good for us or bad for us?

My legs and arms are getting so weak, I really want to try and make them

stronger plus I really need to lose weight.

Thanks
