exercise depends on how your body is doing. If you are used to exercising you can continue exercising, but if you are not then it is better to wait to start until maintenance phase.

With that said....I was used to exercising and I tried to continue while on the VLCD, however some days I got extreemly light headed and had to stop in the middle of the work out -- and that was only doing the C25K.

Take it easy -- see how you feel and then go based on that.

I've found I have more energy for working out now on the vlcd than before. Just be warned, you may see your weight go up a bit on post work out days. It's good to exercise, because you'll be burning all those calories from fat and preserving your lean muscle mass.
