Comment on What's the best way to ease getting back in shape after years of little to no exercise?

Basic cardio. Walk 30 minutes at a 12 degree incline, 2.5 - 3.0 MPH, 5x a week.
Legit, if you do ONLY this, you will lose weight.
After two weeks of doing this, add on 30 minutes of weight lifting 3-4x a week. Nothing crazy, just get your muscles working.
Do that for two weeks. Congrats - you’ve been exercising for a month. Keep scaling up but listen to your body. Stay hydrated through the day, and 1lb of protein per lb of body weight that you’re supposed to weigh.

I don’t think you mean “1 lb of protein”. I think it’s a around 0.5 grams per 1 lb?

I meant 1lb per ideal (goal) weight. If you’re starting at 200lbs and want to be 150lbs, eat 150g of protein per day.
