QuestionHow can I increase my stamina?
I am a healthy woman in my 60s. I have no health problems, am not over weight, eat a healthy diet and exercise daily (walk 2 miles most days and use free weights 3 x a week). So what's the problem? I have no stamina. A few minutes of "real work" (yard work, helping a friend pack to move, housework etc) wears me out. What can I do in the way of diet or exercise to increase my stamina? Thanks Jo
AnswerJo,
You should increase your exercise-
either start jogging/running 2 miles each day--or walk 3-4 miles each day.
As for your weight training-you should increase either your weight or
increase the amount of sets and reps that you do at each workout.
