I am 49 years old my weight is not reducing although i am walking 5 km daily one hour,kindly advice how to reduce weight.

Ans: Thank you for your query. As a physiotherapist, I recommend combining your daily walking routine with strength training exercises like squats, lunges, and resistance band exercises to build muscle, which boosts metabolism. Additionally, focus on high-intensity interval training (HIIT) to vary the intensity of your workouts and burn more calories. Incorporate core-strengthening exercises such as planks to enhance stability and overall fitness. Pay attention to diet and hydration as they play a crucial role in weight loss, ensuring you maintain a calorie deficit. Finally, consult with a nutritionist or fitness expert for personalized guidance. Wishing you success in your weight loss journey!
