    Advice sought for beginning excercise at 57

    @teofrastus Thanks. This is obviously great advice, and it would also work for me. However, life circumstances mean I can't afford it right now. One thing I might be able to do is get an employee to help. One of my engineers is an ex national team sports player and she's still very active. My...

    Hi. I've recently turned 57. I'm male, 6'0" 217 lbs I have always struggled to excercise consistently. I know that if I don't shake up in the next year or so, I'll find it very much harder to do so, and I hope to live a long active life. Things I do do. Walk c 4 miles 2-3 times a week and...

    @shemesh This sounds like great advice. In terms of time, it's a free hit! Thanks! How many reps of one thing should I do before hitting a different area? Would swimming vigorously be as good as the gym?

    @cat1223 I'm in the UK. I tend not to eat too much highly processed food, and cook daily from raw ingredients, but my diet needs more veg and less meat and cheese. 100% with the idea that diet is what you eat, not what you do. I tend to comfort eat as a response to stress and boredom. My...
