1. Bodyweight fitness, and cardio, starting with walks, progressing to jogs or runs. 2. As others mention r/bodyweightfitness's routine has a routine and progression to follow. The sub is also a good place to ask questions on the journey. I enjoy having goals of personal delight alongside it, for me handstands. 3. Others will have better diet advice. I aim to have general blood tests at least once a year. Address deficiencies. Beyond that journaling what you eat and when can help you learn what you're consuming and give you clear reasons for adjusting your eating habits. Eating a plant-first diet, though not strictly exclusive, I've had trouble with maintaining iron levels, until I remember to supplement with B12, and B*complex vitamins alongside the iron. Since fixing that 2 weeks ago, I've done spontaneous workouts often, feeling the desire to workout and just going. 4. For physical fitness, practical capability and physical resilience drive my goals. Fitness and workouts also aid mental capability and mental health. I track VO2 max as a metric I can't game, but that's a reliable indicator of current health. I would encourage you to stress yourself in the achieving of chores. Push yourself harder than you know you can do, or have done before. Aim to tire yourself doing them, and you will grow stronger. Learn to enjoy the strain, lean into more, and you'll find the tasks you do get easier and easier—-you may even take on harder tasks. Don't aim for ease and happiness, aim for challenge and purpose, ease and happiness will take care of themselves. I recommend approaching fitness and nutrition as multivariate problems of finding activities, habits, that work for you, that advance you toward your goal, and that you can train, especially as a game. That way when life forces changes in your habits, you don't need to change goals, only find a new way to pursue that same goal under new constraints. You have clear goals, although they're a long way off. Simple reasons work, but it helps to have a metric to judge progress against, the more specific the better, and the more you can design in feedback, e.g. of charting your progress by hand on something you see daily, the more you can ingrain and affirm your goals. I appreciate tracking results, but I think tracking effort, workouts completed, is more valuable in the long run, than always expecting that I'll improve performance. awb, thanks, you've helped me understand how the kettlebell workout I do checks all these boxes. https://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/the-20-minute-beginner-kettlebell-workout-build-muscle-and-burn-fat/ https://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/the-20-minute-beginner-kett...
