five words: CONSUME LESS, MOVE ABOUT MORE.
The advice I got from my personal trainer at the gym was to do a good warm-up (treadmill for 5 mins at medium walking pace), a longer go on the treadmill (15 minutes with incline and as fast s I can walk without starting to jog), then 5 minutes on a cross trainer, 20 rowing, 20 cycling.
In total that burns off over 600 kCal.
After that I do some weights - I use about 6 different upper body weight excersises, lat pulldowns, chest presses, arm curls etc - find a weight that you can comfortably do 15 reps of with moderate effort and then do multiple sets - by the end of the second or third set the same weight should feel barely manageable.
I've been doing this for a month and a half now, having done zro excersize for 18 years and I've lost 8kg (about 18 pounds) and a size in trousers.
I went back to the gym on Saturday for my six week view and was given higher settings for all of the equipment and larger weights for the training.
I col down with a go in the pool, sometimes use the sauna and generally hit the gym 3 times a week.
Drop the beer.
