Cardio would be my number 1. Just finished my regular staurday hammer head ride this morning. 50 dreadful miles. When I tore my knee, the guy that made my knee brace tell me I should be in a lot of pain but I shown no signs of any real pain, just a bit disconfort. He tells me because I am activity. My friend's wife, jsut turned 62 survived breast cancer few years back. She was never a big fan of any real, regular exercise. She will train for a 10k when necessary but once its over, goes back to the couch. Since her surgery, she picked up Tai Chi due to low impact. Now she does it twice a week. I tried following her thinking its slow and effortless. NOPE, was I wrong. I was sore the next day due to the lack of use on those muscles. She explain that its lack weight so its all body weight and the surprising thing is, its like going slow motion and that made it even more difficult. Its like holding one's arm in one position moving ever so slowly.

Core and weight lost is the key.
