Dear Komal,
What is a good fitness routine for someone who does not exercise?
Does one need to exercise every day?
Is walking enough?
I am asking for myself.
I am 45, slightly overweight, deskbound.
Thank you,
Asha
Fitness is very essential for the growth and development of the body.
A good fitness regimen is having a balanced diet and doing aerobics and strengthening exercises for a minimum of 45 minutes.
This helps in body toning and reducing your body fat percentage. It will also help to reduce the risk of developing several diseases like Type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc.
Regular activity can improve your quality of life. It can improve your muscle strength and boost your endurance.
Walking alone is not enough for most people, although it brings many benefits.
As you are overweight and nearing menopause, you must focus on both a balanced diet and regular exercise in order to maintain good health.

One of my earlier articles captures how one can begin their wellness journey. It has the answers to all your questions. You can read it here.
Remember that a healthy diet and routine is the first step towards wellness -- but only if practised consistently.
In wellness, those who are slow but steady always win; therefore persistence is more important than following stringent diets/heavy workouts and then letting it go!
Please move gradually into the regime so your body can cope up and doesn’t want to give up.
