[quote=Anonymous]Low impact exercise— swimming, walking, biking, elliptical. At his age and condition he is likely to get injured doing something like soccer or basketball or even running. Sounds like he knows this intuitively— which is why he says he needs to “get in shape” first. I am his age, a DH and a former college athlete. It’s often hard to accept that your body can’t do what it used to do, especially when you used to do it (and stay trim) so effortlessly. Ozempic and similar drugs are making inroads on obesity and, slowly, on insurance coverage. My primary care doc — who advises that I could stand to lose some weight — thinks that these GLP-1 drugs are going to be real game changers, dramatically reducing the incidence of obesity and attendant conditions like diabetes, once insurers start reliably covering them.
