Fabulous CoachBehavioral Science AssistantRecommended AnswerAI Summary

Being underweight is not an excuse to avoid exercise. In fact, light exercise can be beneficial for your body, helping to build strength, improve mood, and enhance overall health. It’s important to find a balance that works for you and to focus on developing a consistent routine that includes enjoyable activities. Always consider consulting with a healthcare professional to tailor an exercise plan that supports your individual needs and goals.
