Dear Komal ji, I am 43 yr old male. I don't have any car or 2 wheeler, hence I commute via bus or cab for my daily works. I take medicine for BP. My avg morning BP before medicine is 125/95 and avg fasting sugar is 95. My daily avg step count is 5000+. Do I need to do morning or evening walk.

Ans: Both morning and evening walks have their benefits. Walking in the morning can help wake you up and give you an energy boost for the day. Walking in the evening can help you unwind and de-stress after a long day. Given your blood pressure and fasting sugar levels, regular physical activity like walking can be very beneficial. It can help manage blood pressure, improve cardiovascular health, and support blood sugar control. The best time to walk is the time that you can consistently stick to and enjoy. If you have any specific health concerns, it might be a good idea to discuss them with your family physician.

I have an office sitting job from 12 pm to 9 pm daily how much walking should I do. I also have open heart surgery for mechanical aorta valve replacement 9 months ago. Kindly advice

Ans: Thank you for your inquiry. Begin by incorporating short walks into your routine and gradually increase both the duration and intensity over time. Initially, aim for 10-15 minutes of walking and gradually progress to 30 minutes or more per day, adjusting based on your comfort level and tolerance. Given your sedentary job, it's important to break up prolonged periods of sitting with brief walking breaks. Consider setting a timer to prompt you to stand up, stretch, and take a short walk every hour or so. Before embarking on any new exercise regimen, especially considering your recent surgery, it's essential to seek guidance from your healthcare provider. They can offer personalized advice tailored to your medical history, current health status, and any specific limitations or precautions you may need to observe

Question by Madhusudan - Mar 29, 2024Hindi

Health

Dear Sir,Iam 63 years old male ,walking in the morning for 40 minutes everyday. Except sunday & my weight is 87 Kg's, please let me know how much i should walk to reduce my weight if any diet please answer.(Thanks).

Ans: Dear Mr. Madhusudan. Thank you for your question. It's great to hear that you're committed to your health by walking 40 minutes every morning. To enhance your weight loss efforts, I recommend incorporating resistance training into your routine in addition to your regular walking. While walking is beneficial for cardiovascular health, resistance training is more effective for burning calories, building muscle, and improving overall fitness. Apart from this aim to create a calorie deficit by consuming fewer calories than you burn, which is crucial for weight loss. Include high-quality protein sources in your diet, such as lean meats, fish, eggs, legumes, and low-fat dairy. Protein helps in maintaining muscle mass and keeps you full longer.

I am 33 old female IT engg. I started preparing for govt exam right after graduation but didn't able to clear single one. During this course, also i got married but now i want to start a career but i am clueless which field i should start because of such huge gap. Please guide me

Ans: First be familiar with the changes which crept into the IT industry during the time of your gap, otherwise you will not be able to maintain the present pace. Secondly stop searching for govt. jobs. IT future lies in private only. One very good suggestion is there. Pursue 2 years online MBA in IT. It will cover many things which are presently in the market. Have 1/2 certificate course of AI & Machine Learning immediately and start applying for new jobs. I guarantee you will get good placement.

My daughter is going to be graduated by next year in Electronic and communication engineering (ECE). Is there any good opportunity for job or should she continue her higher study? We are in a great confusion seeing this day by day fall down of job opportunity. Please help.

Ans: If the financial condition permits let her go for MS from a reputed university of USA. She needs good GRE SCORE, TOEFL score around 105-110, three good recommendations from her professor, a sloid SOP (statement of purpose) and approximately a funding between 80 lakhs to 1 crore. Don't lose hope and never discuss negative things in front of your daughter, it will affect her mental set up and enhance her anxiety. Everything will be OK. Just be in touch with me.

Hi sir, This is Naresh. I'm completed my diploma in civil engineering in 2016. After that I started my career as a structural cad engineer. Since 7 years I'm working as a professional engineer. I'm married. But actual my goal is in want become a structural design engineer. I stuck in my career. My salary also not growing as per the market. How can I get my degree in civil engineering field. And also I'm unable to quite my job. I want to grow in my career.Please guide me

Ans: Unless you go for BE (Civil) and M.Tech Structures you can't be an officially recognized Structural Engineer. But the present condition won't allow you to do BE (Civil) and M.Tech (Structures) by leaving you job and you are married too. So I would suggest you to appear for the AMIE exam. It is hard, but at least the scope is there. After completing AMIE you will be equivalent to BE ( Civil). After that even if you don't go for M.Tech it will not create any problem. Because AMIE with such a big experience will help you to stand as a sound structural engineer in the market. Join me in LINKEDIN for permanent connectivity and counselling. GOD BLESS YOU.

If i am studing diploma in civil engineering after that can i do B.Tech in Computer science

Ans: You can do, but for that again you have to do a diploma in Computer Science. You can't go directly from Civil to Computer in India. Otherwise you have to clear 11th and 12th Science (I am assuming you joined diploma after Xth Standard) and take fresh admission in Computer Science. But it will be a great loss of time. The best way is to do online BBA. It will give you graduation ( though for BBA 12th pass is essential) and after BBA you can do some good certificate course from institute like INTELLIPAAT which gives standard certificate in Data Science and Machine Learning (a need of the day) in Collaboration with IIT- Chennai/IIT- Roorkee. It will create a path for you to go in the stream of computer science. Join me in LINKEDIN for permanent connectivity and counselling. GOD BLESS YOU. Professor...........................:)
