7) I consider myself to be very unfit, have little or no exercise experience. Can I still enter the 12 week challenge? What exercise programme do you recommend?

If you have been relatively inactive for 6 months or more, we suggest that you first obtain medical clearance from your health professional before commencing this exercise programme.

As your fitness improves, gradually increase your weights, repetitions and build up to the suggested timeframes. (Sample exercise progressions are included in the Biggest Loser Starter Pack)

If you would like support and guidance, we suggest hiring the services of a fitness instructor or personal trainer.
