Building endurance/cardio on a basic level

[Koapa]

I'm 5'8, 175 don't workout/ exercise / do any sort of physical activity

Lately as I've gotten older I see how my lack of activity is catching up to me, I can barely make it up 2 flights of stairs without being out of breath and unable to function properly for 30 minutes

What's somewhere or some basic program I can start to improve this? Jogging, running?

FYI, I don't want to hit the weights right away

Trust me, the elliptical machine will do your cardio and endurance wonders. I fukked up my knee running on a concrete trail trying to get into shape. Switch up to the elliptical and no issues since. I usually hit it for 15 minutes (Rolling Mountains option) then go hoop and work out.

You can improve your stamina in two weeks if you jog a couple of miles every day.

The most improtant factor in all fitness activites is intensity. So make sure to push yourself each time.

Do the push-ups challenge breh.

Also, get yourself some running shoes, a hoodie, some sweat pants, make a cool music playlist and jog for 15 minutes at the speed you're most comfortable with. Then improve the time, and speed little by little.
