[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please ignore the walking advice. You will never get inshape simply by walking. Add 10 to 30 second busts of jogging into your Walks. Do 4 minutes of walk and then a short burst of jog. Cycle through this until you can hold the jog for 30 seconds. After you find this more comfortable, make every other burst an "all out" sprint. If you can do just 5 seconds, do 5. But cycle up over weeks until you get to 30 seconds Add light dumbell compound exercises 2twice a week. Keep going. Your body will make changes to handle the additional demands you put on it over time.[/quote] Weight loss is calorie deficit, full stop. There is zero need to run. I agree on the weights but they should be heavy. OP, start with walking. If you can hire a personal trainer to show you proper form, start lifting. At 50 it’s critical. And increase your protein.[/quote]
