I am also diabetic but I know it will go away with my weight... Hence I work 9-6 and drive 1 hr each way to work that coupled with my 2 kids I dont have time for a gym. My wife just got a me a weight bench and free weights, but I need a direction on which to go I am starting my weight lifting plan thanks to FT, but I need some advice on Cardio on how to get started I have a Goal of 300lbs by april 2007 or 325 with muscle gain I have tried to run in the past but seem to give up due to my body size it wears on me pretty good...any advice on how to keep a good constant cardio would be great seems like in past I dive in the deep end and get out the program ANY ADVICE PLEASE!
