Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 49 years old, and lately, it feels like my energy levels are low. I am finding it increasingly difficult to stay active. Is there a specific type of exercise or routine that is more suitable for someone my age? How can I balance staying active with the limitations that come with aging?

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query.

1. First, do not make drastic life changes or a restricted diet that you cannot sustain But if you are trying to achieve a sustainable healthy lifestyle, then having a wholesome meal for body recovery is important and a sudden exercise routine would not help. Start with small goals like 3000 steps a day or having plenty of water and it can be customized as per your lifestyle and needs.

2. Check for your blood reports.

3. Check for the obesity stage by calculating your BMI (body mass index).

4. Identify lifestyle changes or stress factors that you have not mentioned.

5. Start with mild exercises and 30 minutes of regular walking.

6. Do not forget to add high-protein post-workout meals and pre-workout meals.

Hope it helps.

Thanks and regards.
