I have many, many old injuries I've had to work through and with over the years. I've always found that initially the pain is quite high, but as the muscles around the injuries have strengthened, the pain has eased so that it was far less than it ever was even to start with.
For me, I was bullied in school etc etc, and tho it wasn't about my weight at all I've found that being fitter and slimmer in general has helped with my confidence. I also need to be pretty fit to be able to ride Sierra effectively. No good me getting out of breath before she does!
There are lots of exercises I can't really do tho. Squats kill my knees, and hiking kills my knees. (I can't walk down hill for too long, especially not down long flights of steps) So I just do other stuff :P
