What about getting in 10,000 steps a day of activity that we’ve all heard about? That’s what I try to achieve with a pedometer I have. I use it because it basically keeps me moving :) it’s not necessarily intense exercise, but when I‘m climbing hills, it gets a little more intense. I just keep moving throughout the day.

I have experienced weight gain after exercise not just because of cortisol but due to serotonin and edema.

When I'm overreaching a little too much, I tend to hold more water. Any inflammatory stimulus the body can't deal with quickly enough has accumulative effects.

Yes, I do too! I lose 1-2 inches from my upper thighs when I don't exercise for a few days. Instead just focus on getting 10-12,000 steps throughout a day.

Actually I find even walking to be stressful. I think lifting heavy with long breaks to be most effective
