Gentlemen - Need advice

Jogging is rough on a body that is not already toned. I started by walking every evening after dinner for an hour. I return home refreshed, tired and ready for sleep after a hot shower. That was 32 years ago. Now I'm in the gym every day for an hour working different body parts on different days. It's therapy for my body and mind. Best money spent.

Try to reduce your carb and sugar intake too as those cause inflammation in your joints which can hurt.

I’m a skinny dude and I was living quite the sedentary life style. Start with small exercises depending on what your goals are, and gradually move up from there! I started having pelvic floor issues because I was sitting all day and barely doing any exercises, so I started small, doing air squats, lunges, etc and then after awhile I started hitting up the gym to get a little more cut and to do some cardio.

Just listen to your body, but also don’t be afraid to push yourself. OH- and pains is kinda normal if you don’t really work out or anything. It’ll go away over time, again... just don’t strain yourself.

Hope this helps, good luck brother.

Try low-intensity workouts swimming helps during the summer and it helps to go back to elementary physical education and spend a good 30 minutes to an hour on plain stretching before hitting the weights or the trail

Do some yoga and always remember to warm up and end an exercise with stretching you’re not weak don’t tell yourself that you can do it

If you're a fat dude fast and keto to lose weight. Without exercise if you want. If you want to exercise go slow. Once a week for a month then twice a week for a month and so on. It'll take a long time but take it slow otherwise you'll get injured and it'll take you 10 times longer if you get hurt or go too fast

If you can only do 5 minutes, do 5 minutes. Then go from there. Embrace that you starting at this level. It's all good.

If you have a good understanding of form, I have been getting a big kick out of the 5/3/1 workout program. Doesn't consume much time but has definitely helped increase my strength and kept me fit.

For awhile, I wasn't doing any specific program, just going to the gym and deciding what I was going to do on the spot. I lost a lot of motivation because I didn't have a goal to work towards. Eventually I stopped altogether. Took me 2 months before I started feeling like a POS and decided to get back to it.

I'm not saying you have to do 5/3/1, but maybe devise a goal of what you want out of your fitness. Run 1 mile in under 7 minutes. Lift x amount. Then create a plan and stick to it with no excuses. Finding time to go to the gym is a precious bit of time that I have come to value and look forward to in my day. It may take a bit to adjust your perspective, but once you start achieving goals and setting new ones, it is a nice reminder of the type of control you have over your own life.

One step at a time, otherwise you burn yourself and quickly give up.

Start just once a week, whatever you try. Wait for month, then try twice a week, and better stop there. Give your body a time to recover. Nervous system takes 2-3 weeks to recover, especially when you already have stress.!

Training in a Swimming Pool would be better for your joints. Less Pain + Resistance.

Do some light exercises, don't start with the jogging. Your body is not used to it.

Loosen up first, and do fast walking instead of running.

Start taking creatine everyday. Google creatine benefits. It’s great for giving you that energy to workout.

Kettlebell at home. Spin bike at home.

I have my "private dojo" at my apartment (patio screened with heavy anti-bug screen = shade & privacy). Blue tooth speaker & I am in heaven. No lines to wait in. I control the Pandora tunes. No driving. Just walk right in to the shower afterwards. Bliss.
