[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After 40 you need to avoid strenuous exercise or the weight will stay. Weights, walking, etc., and a balanced diet. If you fight your body it will fight you back. Try it for a month, you’ll be surprised![/quote] Wait…are weights considered strenuous or not? I thought after 40 the whole point was to seek out high intensity exercise vs. the endless cardio sessions of our 20s and 30s. Also, erging (if done in a high intensity way and not just faffing around like those people waiting for a better machine at the gym) should be the ideal high-intensity exercise. [/quote] Sorry, strenuous might not have been the best word. Weights are good. They don’t raise your heart rate to peak intensity and you definitely need muscle. High intensity cardio for long stretches will stress your body and be counterproductive. So like, 20 mins of weight lifting and 20 mins of walking is better than an hour of running.[/quote]
