That means packing and lugging suitcases, and having the strength to control skittish, heavy animals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Two and a half years ago, she wanted to improve her overall fitness while also protecting an arthritic shoulder and knee. \u201cI wanted to have the ability, strength and confidence to take on whatever life might have in store,\u201d she said. So she started exercising with a trainer she met through her physiotherapy clinic. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The sessions have made a difference.
