[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PS, I was feeling very out of shape 6 mos ago and what has worked well for me was to start with 10-20 mins per day max alternating very short cardio and weight workouts. 5 days per week. I had health benefits just from this. My sleep improved and my blood sugar improved.

I increased gradually. 7 months later I am averaging 200+ “Zone” mins of cardio per week (measured by Fitbit. Peak cardio counts as 2x minutes so 200 zone mins does not equal 200 actual minutes, if that makes sense) I also weight train all muscle groups at least 1x per week, more if I have time. (I count barre as weight/strength training). this was my goal for personal health purposes and it took me a few months to get there but it has led me to feel stronger, healthier and more energetic! A big concern for me is heart disease prevention since it runs in my family.

So - good luck, start small to get a routine going, and trust that you will be doing more in time. I realized that because I started small, I wasn’t dreading my workouts and I wasn’t feeling tired and sore after, so I was able to get the endorphins and energy boost and build a positive association. This led to longer workouts over time! [/quote]

thank you! i appreciate your advice and encouragement![/quote]
