Working out

Can someone help me with some exercise suggestions I am turning 60 next month and have been sedentary for the past year for health reasons.
Thank you
Tony De Carlo

    I think a good option is to schedule a couple of sessions with a personal trainer. This way they can get to know you and what your needs are. :)

    That might be a good choice.
    Thank you

    Starting with brisk walking is usually good for those who have been sedentary. My favorite is cycling.

    Do you like gyms or belong to one? Our local gyms all have active older adults classes...I'm 52 and went to one, it was good...I totally worked up a sweat!

    My husband (who is 61) and I both love hiking...anything from a nature walk to a strenuous 8-10 mile day hike. Those are abundant and a great way to get a lot of activity in!

    Most important is to do things you enjoy so you will keep on doing them!
