do you have any equipment at home? i have a friend who's on a similar pathway with very limited access to actual weights, and i think she went to the resources page at nerd fitness to start herself off. she spent an hour or two with a trainer after a couple of weeks just to get a form check, since she's in her 50's and doesn't want to become some kind of casualty. but she's still at it, and it's been at least six months by this time.
