How long did it take for any of you to see results from excercise ? When did you notice a change in your body ..I can't get to a gym so may I add I am doing an hour on a treadmill and exercises on my core will this change my body at all ? Or do I have to be lifting weights to see much better results ? Sorry so many questions

    You'll notice cardio improvement from the treadmill, but body composition changes come from weight bearing exercise. You don't need to gym to body weight exercises like squats, lunges, wall push-ups, bear crawls, and so on.

    body composition is 90% diet.

    Treadmill (cardio-pulmonary exercise) will definitely help you improve how you look & feel, and you will notice positive changes in a matter of days provided you also manage your nutrition. Adding resistance training (i.e., weights) will optimize your effort. You don't need a gym; you can do a lot for yourself with body weight exercises.

    The best exercise is the next one you do.

    How much you improve — and how quickly — will of course be in direct proportion to the discipline you apply. Doing just a little is something, though, and that's way-way better than nothing!

    You'll see the most results from diet. Cardio will help the deficit and is for health, weights to help maintain muscle mass while losing.
