Hi!

Erm, now the formalities are out of the way, great thread. Not the biggest visitor to the gym but nothing beats a good walk or jog to me. However as things continue to change I'll have to try and maintain a base level of muscle but let's see. Will be sure to keep an eye here to get some tips, so anything for a beginner?

yeah, my advice is this. going to the gym isnt the only way to maintain a healthy body and athletic build. there are many activities and sports you can do that can be a lot more helpful. find something you truly enjoy doing, and you are most likely to commit to it rather than going to the gym to just work out. you can go hiking, play football, learn martial arts, go rock climbing, skate boarding. anything really. as long as you enjoy it, you are most likely to commit to it more. 

That makes a lot of sense, thanks. A lot of this will come down to confidence no doubt and practice makes perfect. I play tennis to a reasonable level already which is something I enjoy, perhaps upping this practice and going for more adventurous walks, whilst also doing basic exercise like Reim suggested is a good place to start!
