Starting your weight loss journey can feel overwhelming, especially for busy men and women ages 35-55. Many people struggle to know where to begin, which often leads to frustration and giving up too soon. For those over 35, losing weight is more challenging than it was in your youth, but a well-planned strategy can make all the difference.The key is to start with a clear plan. Write down your fitness goals and honestly assess your current exercise routine and lifestyle. Instead of copying complex routines from fitness influencers, beginners should focus on mastering the basics of strength training and cardio, gradually increasing intensity through progressive overload. This approach builds endurance and strength safely, without risking injury.In addition to a structured workout plan, nutrition plays a critical role. Tracking your meals using apps like MyFitnessPal can help you understand your eating habits and identify areas for healthier substitutions. Instead of making drastic changes, slowly incorporate lower-calorie alternatives while still enjoying your favorite treats on cheat days.If you’re unsure where to start, consider consulting a personal trainer—even temporarily—to gain expert guidance. With discipline, realistic goals, and a tailored plan that fits your busy lifestyle, you can overcome the obstacles in your weight loss journey and achieve sustainable results.Coach Julio is an expert in fitness and nutrition, having helped hundreds of busy office professionals and parents in their 30s, 40s, and 50s be their healthiest with personalized training plans and nutritionist counseling services.
