"Every day, I ride my exercise bicycle for 20 minutes. Then I walk up and down the street, which has a small hill. My goal is to be strong and healthy so that I can be independent. I want to have strong legs that will support me and keep me from falling and strong arms so I can cook my children their favorite dinners and water my plants"
