How do i transition into a healthy lifestyle after being sedentary for so long?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The trick is to start slowly and increase the activity gradually over 6-8 weeks . To start with, you could walk 10minutes a day , increasing it to 3 times daily , 5 days a week at least . Biking , yard work , walking instead of driving for nearby errands , avoiding sitting for long periods, are all helpful .Some websites showing recommended amounts of activity , include cdc.gov, medlineplus.g
