Deconditioned: You did not supply enough info to determine your physical fitness. You need an exam a full physical and, if no contradictions, start an exercise program that maintains your heart rate at 70-75% of your maximum heart rate which would be 137-147 bpm for at least 20 minutes 3-4 times a week. More is better within reason. .
