The timeless favourite to get fit and lose weight. Most lose weight exercise programs will inevitably include some running or jogging at some point. The great thing about using jogging as an exercise to lose weight is you can do it pretty much anywhere, and you don\'t need any equipment. If you are a member of a gym, why not include an intense run on the running machine as a good warm up before your session.

Start with 10 minutes and gradually work your way up to 20 minutes.

In addition, go for runs outside in your local park or similar area, it will be less boring than the machines at the gym!

My uncle suffered from heart and weight problems and was literally at death\'s door. The doctors advised him to change his diet and begin taking regular walks every day, so he did. Today, he is in much better shape and continues to get up early in the morning and walk for a good couple of hours. He has lowered his blood pressure as well as losing fat, and this change of lifestyle and exercise has literally transformed him. Never underestimate the power of even the simplest of exercises.
