Hi all,
So I am a complete beginner to exercise/fitness and am after some advice on how to get started.
I'm a size 22 and extremely unfit and I really want to make a change to my life. I'm sick of short term diets and want to change my whole body forever.
I've never really exercised regularly before so not sure if I'm on the right track. I ultimately want to shift fat and gain lean muscle.
So far I've been starting out with Joe Wicks' HIIT workouts on youtube aiming for 4/5 sessions a week (and feeling half dead by the end of it). I've also started building in a 25 min brisk walk most days and an early morning swim on a sunday morning.
I'm wanting to order some weights or a kettle bell to add in to my workouts but not sure what size to go for? I've got a pair of dumbbells but they're only 0.75kg so unlikely to make much difference - I want to get heavier ones.
I should also add in that I'm tracking my calories on MFP and trying to make sure I eat plenty of protein each day. Does it sound like I'm on the right track?
