STARTING OUT WITH EXERCISE

When you’ve not exercised for a long time, you should have your condition checked and consult a doctor, if you are over 40, your physical condition is poor, you suffer from a chronic illness or have health problems, or you have injuries to or problems in your muscles.

The safest way to determine your fitness level is to have it checked under the supervision of a doctor or professional fitness trainer. People suffering from heart or circulatory diseases or any other risk factors should definitely have their condition checked before they start training.

How often?

For endurance exercising, it’s good to exercise at least 3 times a week, but remember for your health that once a week is better than not at all. The effects of exercising will show after just a few weeks.

How long?

If you’re very unfit, start with a 20 minute workout. Once your condition improves, you can train for 30-60 minutes depending on your goal.
