So I was doing this today going up and down and I think it’s exercise? But no idea what it’s called?

I thought OP was describing Romanian deadlift to start but now I'm not sure 🤔

Same. I wouldnt do this if you've never exercised before. If you're not sure about moving your body into the same positions as others, I'd suggest a few sessions with a PT to suggest and walk you through some exercises you can then do on your own (or keep them on if you can afford it). However food is where you'll need to make lots of small incremental changes to lose weight.

Regarding will it help you lose weight. No it won't.

The only form of exercise that burns fat is aerobic exercise over an extended period and it does that quite slowly - even a decently fit cyclist is only going to be burning 400-600kcal an hour worth of fat and if you go any harder you still burn the same amount of fat but just burn more carbs.

lol at everyone taking this all earnestly and seriously

Won't help you lose weight, no. It may help with flexibility, which is always a good thing, but you have to ease into it or you can pull a muscle or tendon and that won't be any fun.

Losing weight is about consuming less energy than you use over an extended period of time.

I don't know if this is a serious post or not but, if so, that's my good deed done for the day. 😜

im not replying any more to a bunch of rude keyboard warriors oh and also its not AI. The only AI I use is Alexa for music. That’s it

Takes just as much time to post a helpful comment as a shitty one. I'd rather risk wasting my time on helping someone than being a dick personally.
