I have got my diet finally sorted, so I am good on that end.......
Any specifics you need to know would be great
First you need to get a check up, be sure everything is up and running properly
1: Aerobic Exercise
Start and aerobic exercise something rhythmic, continuous and involving the large muscle groups (primarily located in the lower part of your body.) Boxing, Walking, jogging, cycling, aerobic dance, and stair climbing are examples of activities that use large muscle groups.
2: Strength Training
Unless you perform regular strength exercise, you will lose up to one-half pound of muscle every year of life after age 25
You need a treadmill, stairmaster, rowing machine or stationery cycle ,and put it in front of the T.V. so you will use it ! And think about it ! The Garage is no good Remember out of sight out of mind start off 10 min and each week add 10 min to your cardio. And build from there. Get some dumb bells 5-10-20 put them by your other equipment in the T.V. area ! Once again it will help you think about working out. Do some curls in between commercials when your watching T.V. work you way up. Remember The large Muscles burn the most fat. Also diet in real important take a multi vitamin every day, lack of certain vitamins and minerals can cause you to store fat. Hope this helps !
