Hello folks,
Newbie here, in the summer of 2022 I finally decided to stop neglecting myself and start paying attention to what i eat and move more. I gotta say it's really not fun wanting to move more/do certain types of activities and not being able to or struggling a lot due to the current state of my body. But it's alright, I've got a goal and I'm working on it. I'm looking for a program recommendation so here's some quick info about me:
Newbie here, in the summer of 2022 I finally decided to stop neglecting myself and start paying attention to what i eat and move more. I gotta say it's really not fun wanting to move more/do certain types of activities and not being able to or struggling a lot due to the current state of my body. But it's alright, I've got a goal and I'm working on it. I'm looking for a program recommendation so here's some quick info about me:
- Female, 25 yrs old, weight - 120 kg, height - 175 cm.
- Needless to say, I'm looking to lose weight. But I also am looking to get stronger/improve my general level of fitness so I can continue being physically active without feeling like my body might fall apart while doing it
- Since the summer began I've lost about 3 kg mainly through a lot of trial and error diet-wise, it's not as fast of a change as I'd like it to be but I'll take slow progress over no progress.
- On weekdays I try to walk as much as I can usually ranging from 4k to 11k steps depending on the weather and with spring on the horizon I hope to increase my average.
- I'm not a big fan of cardio exercises per se, but I really enjoy dancing and would like to have that as my primary source of cardio.
- I want to get strong! I have a little bit of gym experience as I went for a few months fairly consistently but had to stop (not due to injury or anything like that). This is why I'm currently looking into exercising at home; I have a set of resistance bands and would be able to get some dumbbells in the near future (perhaps I could get a recommendation for the dumbbell weight too).
- I would like to eventually return to the gym, once my circumstances allow it, but I'm open to fully embracing the home exercise life if it works for me
