Does prolonged L&C cause serious back problems to my wife at later stage ?
I mean maybe after she reaches middle ages she could suffer from worn out joints or permanent back pain and stuff ...

Also there could also effect their biological cycles ....

I would be really grateful if I could get some input from any women who have experience in L&C stuff
You are too funny! Such questions!

About hte slow progress, that's fine. She's your wife. You have "eternity", not a 1 hour session!

Afterall, it's "till death do us part, not till lift do us part".


Per your long term health questions, I am not a girl, nor an MD, but I do know a little about exercise (little meaning more than a little, but less than a lot).

So 1st, you say, "prolonged LC". What do you mean by that?
Is she carrying you all the time now? Or do you mean, prolonged as in a little here and there from now until...

Exercise is healthy and actually strengthens everything related int he body, as long as it's done correctly.

So any lifting should be done at the right, healthy, levels, and heavier weight built up to. The risk of too much weight too before she is ready means risking an injury, which IS something that can plague her in later life.

In my "recreational MD" opinion, for what little that may be worth, I would keep the exercises simple. DOn't push her beyond her comfort limit. Work up to "better" things.

I don't see harm in simple stuff liek PB's, as long as your not so heavy on her that she is straining anything.
Let's say she tries to squat you during a PB.
I think her leg strength will dictate what she can and can't do long before she would be looking at knee injury.
On the other hand, if she tries a squat and her legs collapse and you both fall, if she falls wrong or you fall on her, or something along those lines... That would be most unfortunate, so you should certainly exercise caution.

Imagine someone who wanted to be a body builder, but never trained at all, going to a gym, cold, and attempting with all his might to lift his max.
Sure he can easily injure himself, and depending on what and how severe the injury, it may be the end of his never started body building career, or can catch up with him later in life.
Ont he other hand, the pro that trains his body make his body much stronger in every way and the result is the opposite.

That's the distinction between building you body vs. wearing it out.

So just progress with LC slowly with common sense...

On another note, how does your wife feel?
Is she comfortable, or are you pushing her?


Again, just my opinions.
