Do you have any exercise tips and advice for someone who is overweight?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Exercise: Mediterranean diet and an hour a day of aerobic exercise plus strength traing at least three days a week. Important to find exercise you will do regularly rather than which exercise. Build intensity slowly, you are in for the long run and do not want injuries or burn out.
