I have never exercised in my entire life. I am hoping to start Yoga now to get in condition.

OP - Is this you? Consider joining a gym. Lifetime Potomac has a strong ARORA program targeted at your age group. It sounds like a mixture of classes is what you're seeking.

It's me (I'm OP). Thank you all to your thoughtful suggestions.

Sorry - I am OP, but not the 60 year old.

To the 60 year old: If you have never been an exerciser, almost anything you do will give you a nice benefit. You should probably be careful when starting. THe person who recommended a gym and trainer had a good idea. THe most important thing is to find things you enjoy. There are so many different options! Best wishes from another 60 year old

Op, what about orange theory?

For me, intensive elliptical is the easiest way to get my heart rate up. Walking at 4 MPH is around 130-139, as is swimming a mile at around 36 minutes/mile. Elliptical with arms gets me to 140-170. Running could do that too but I despise it.

OP, I’ve tried it a couple times and liked it. But it makes me want to eat a horse after.

That's not a bad thing. It's likely your body telling you it needs protein to build muscle.
