A member asked:

What's a good workout routine that involves cardio and weights? are these both necessary for weight loss?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Workout: I strongly recommend that you see a trainer to advise you about cardiac issues and weights. That discussion will point you in the right direction and you should feel great. If the trainer thinks there might be something else wrong please take the advice and see your doctor.
