it was great fun!! I think it took pressure off of the run because you were constantly having to think about what you were doing.

Thank you very much Lisna! I’m chuffed with us both

Is running good for losing weight?

Yes, but managing your diet is even more effective.

Absolutely! I find it to be one of the best ways to lose weight. When I discovered that I had weight-related health issues, I needed to work on my weight asap. After talking to a doctor, I decided to buy wegovy online and give it a try. Though it turned out to be helpful, it was only an additional way. I should say, that running has helped me lose the first extra lbs pretty fast.

While running is great for cardiovascular health and burning calories, it can be a high-impact activity that puts stress on your knees. So I wouldn't recommend it for those who are overweight.

I think it really depends on the person and their fitness level. Running isn't necessarily off-limits if you're overweight, but starting slowly and building up gradually is important. Walking, cycling, or swimming can also be good ways to get moving without as much impact on the knees. No point rushing into it and getting injured.

I try to lace up my sneakers at least three mornings a week. There is nothing quite like catching the sunrise around the local park loop before work emails start rolling in. On rainy days when outdoor pavement runs are out of the question, I usually pull up https://betterme.world/articles/inte...enics-workout/ in the living room to keep my heart rate high with burpees and jump squats. Mixing steady road miles with indoor bodyweight circuits has been huge for maintaining stamina.
