Hello, what workout would you recommend to someone who haven't had much physical activity in a long while? Think dystrophy due to sedentary lifestyle. Thanks in advance!

I recommend swimming as a way to start building muscle and strength again. Or wall pushups and a few shallow squats. For push ups and squats do one set of each, then increase when you don’t feel sore from the workouts anymore.
