I am a 49 years old man with BMI of 25. What should be my diet and exercise routine?
Ans: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through diet and exercise is crucial, particularly as you near your 50s. With a BMI of 25, which is at the higher end of the normal range, emphasizing a balanced diet and consistent exercise can help you stay fit and ward off potential health issues. From a physiotherapist's perspective, I recommend increasing your daily steps and incorporating resistance exercises to lose fat and build muscle. It's also important to reduce calorie intake, especially from carbohydrates, and to increase protein intake.
