Ok, so I've been planning to get fit since last month. There's a gym here that I can use for free, it has all the basic equipment a gym usually has. CCP is also pretty close, so morning jogs are do-able. There's also a small pool and a sauna.

Any tips on how I could start? btw, I'm just looking to lose fat/better cardio

Stretching after training helps cool down your muscles, and prevents them from stiffening up - they'll feel less sore when you're tired.

Keep your back straight but relaxed, and breathe slowly and steadily from your diaphragm as you jog. Inhale with your nosrtils, exhale with your mouth. Swing your hips and shoulders naturally as take each step.

Don't sprint - there's an entirely different regimen for that, but for now focus on building up your stamina and knees
