Really need to work on my fitness - but where to start?

I used to be a fairly fit runner (up to10k) until about 10 years ago when injuries, health problems and MH issues all knocked the stuffing out of me. So here I am, now 13 stone, 52 years old, with dodgy knees and lack of motivation Sad Where do I begin? What should I start with? I know there are loads of youtube work outs etc around, I just can't seem to focus, nor do I know what would suit a tubby middle aged women who has become a sloth. Can anyone help with anything that's dragged them out of a rut??

The key thing is finding something you enjoy as you're more likely to stick to it. If you used to enjoy running, I'd suggest doing something similar but easier on the knees (eg cycling, or swimming when lockdown ends) rather than a YouTube video.

Find Leapness Fitness Group in your Playstore. Easy to use free apps. Chose beginner, intermediate or advanced. It gives you a 30 day workout. Slowly builds you up..I went from a belly to almost able to see my abs and can hold a plank!! Am currently doing the "lose belly fat at home" workout and it's great.
