    Wow, this thread turned into a joke.

    Original Poster: I have the same problem with my grandpa. My grandma goes for walks everyday, even with her bad knee, but my grandpa refuses to do more than get up, turn on the Speed channel, and watch NASCAR. I have trouble motivating my mom too, who is more overweight than me and pre-diabetic and won't listen to ALL of the lectures I've given her about her health (emotional and brutally honest lecture).

    I understand your grandma is elderly, so she deserves a little leisure, but she should try to be healthier to see all the wonderful things in her family that's going to happen. I don't have advice, but I support you in your endeavor.
    NEWS FLASH.....
    The OP was a joke!
    And it was made funnier by all the people who DIDN'T get it.

    I'm truly offended by this post. How sexist can you be? Can you honestly say this would be funny if it was the OP's 92 year old grandfather that needed to work out? Why can't you all realize that women can lift too?
