Whats a good begining exercize routine

My husband and I need to loose weight. I am 28 I have fibromyalgia and am carrying about an extra 75 pounds. My husband is 31 he weighs 327 and most of it is in his belly. He slipped 2 discs at work and also has a mucoid degeneration on his ACL. I really am worried about him, all that extra weight cannot be good for his back. Plus he has high blood pressure, and the dr is pretty sure he has sleep apenea. I am worried and want him to get healthy. We have 3 small kids and I want to be able to be around for them and chase after them. What would he the best type of exercise considering his conditions. We really need to get this weight now. Thank you in advance for answering. I really do appreciate it.

First you both need to get the OK from your doctors! That said take a look at the Atkins Diet

Paleo Diet

The Peak 8 routine it will quickly raise your heart rate 8 times for very short bursts, with a cooling down period in
between. Ideally you’ll be sprinting or cycling full throttle for 30 seconds with a 90 second cool down in between
each outburst.
This is the fastest way to lose fat and build muscle in the body. Peak 8 actually stimulates the growth hormone in
the body. I encourage you to visit Dr Mercola’s site to learn more about Peak 8 fitness because I personally feel that
it is one of the best ways to exercise, especially considering the speed at which you can lose fat and build muscle.
I highly recommend you read this article and watch the videos on the page. It will give you all the information you
need to know about Peak 8 – Flood Your Body With This “Youth Hormone” In Just 20 Minutes
What you eat after Peak 8 training does matter
It’s recommended that you do not eat sugar or carbohydrate for 2 hours after the Peak 8 exercise because these
foods can impact the release of the growth hormone in the body. The links are

Figure your heart rate by subtracting your age from 220 the number you get is your maximum heart rate. You should try and get your heart rate between 65% and 85% of your maximum heart rate. I suggest buying a heart rate monitor it's about $30.00!
