[@emmanuela7528]

Exact same thing I did and I lost 5kg in 3 weeks. Run 7-10k, 5 or 6 days a week. Do strength training: 100 push-ups, 100 squats, and 100 variations of core exercises (I switched those up from day to day). Usually went with four sets of 25 reps each. Got into incredible shape. However, I’ve tried that same routine without the cardio and didn’t get nearly the same results. Run, bike, swim…do cardio. It’s great

You can lose weight and gain muscle lifting weights in a caloric deficit. That’s how I’m doing it. Went from 335 to 289 in a month. Sometimes you hit a Plateau for like 2 days of the week but because muscle breaks and builds up but after that the pounds drop.

If you train very hard with weights it actually burns more calories than cardio. But most people train just to lift some light weights and relax a bit.

It isn’t just about burning calories it’s about hormones, weight training increases HGH and testosterone, long periods of cardio increase stress hormones that flood the blood with sugar burning/ fat storing hormones. Muscle burns more calories than fat so the more ripped you are the more fat you will burn and remember cardio induces stress hormones in the body that create the flight or fight mode that stops fat burning and runs on sugar for energy

I may get drilled for the diet I’ve been doing, but I am hoping I can get some constructive criticism from everyone. I’ve gotten to a point where I can fast for 3 days at will, and during this fasting period is when I concentrate on cardio. When I do break a fast, that is when I concentrate on weight training. I consider my self fasted 15hrs after my last meal to give some cushion room. My last meal tends to be before 9pm, soon noon the following day and on I do nothing but cardio. Then, I’ll eat healthy, but a lot, for 3-4 days while I do nothing but weight training. I’ve gone from 207lbs on 8/31 to 169lbs this morning 11/22. Has anyone out there done something similar?

I'm doing weight training 2 times a week and in a 10% calorie defecit (1800-1900 cals a day as I have to eat for my medication to work properly) and I've not lost any weight at all. I'll lose a pound and then very next day I'm back up again. Weighed myself over a month and I am more or less the same weight as when Ibegun and I am even more bloated so i actually look WORSE than when I did no diet or exercise. Some days I'm even heavier than when i started!! What am I doing wrong?? I am 5ft 6 and 219lb and i feel like giving up

[@ashtris8832]

to help with the weight loss i honestly recommended incorporating more cardio into your workouts. u should probably do 4 days of cardio and 2 days of weights then a rest day for the best results. also refrain from constantly weighing yourself bc that will put u in a constant cycle of checking the scale and shutting down when it’s not the weight u want. regardless weight loss is going to take time so weighing urself constantly is not ideal. stay in ur calorie deficit maybe even cut off an extra 100 and eat more cardio with weights and trust me in a month or two u will see the weight melt off of u.

[@QuirkyCurlyKenny]

As a female I don't believe weightlifting is a great tool for weightloss . I think cardio and hiit workouts are the best and then when you're closer to your goal weight you can start strength training for toning .

[@sidramir3211]

What You Need To Do: I hate to tell you this but I think you need to do weight training atleast 3 to 4 days a week. 2 days a week is not enough. Make sure you’re actually challenging yourself with the weights- increase the weight of you find it too easy. For instance if you do bicep curls with 8lb dumbbells and you’re not struggling by your 12th rep- you’re not doing it right. Try to shoot for 3 sets of 12 reps of each exercise.And you should walk 10 000 steps every day ( start with every other day first and build up). You’ll see a difference. Also watch your diet- eat enough protein , otherwise your body will break down muscle.You can never out train a bad diet. Why this works : muscle burns more calories than fat. So if you weight train - in the beginning you will gain more weight - that’s because your putting on muscle, which is also denser / heavier than fat. So by weight training - you’re burning muscle during the workout and even after because your muscles are using calories to just exist. Muscles use up the most calories. The 10 000 steps is a gentle cardio exercise to aid in your weight loss. Cardio doesn’t help put on muscle so it’s just focused on burning calories. So you only burn calories during the work out. Also walking is a nice gentle cardio to start off with

[@TinaTomassen]

Are you sure that you’re consistently eating 1800-1900? People tend to underestimate their calories / food intake. Edit: what about exercise besides 2x weight lifting. Are you sedentary or active? Adding some cardio may help, tbh. Especially if you lead a mostly sedentary life style.

[@mustafafh4402]

Its simple, based on your information (Sedentary life) you need 2100 calories to maintain your weight In order to lose weight you need to eat 1600 calories to lose 1.1pound a week 1100 calories to lose 2 pounds a week Now I suggest you don’t go crazy on the weights, because muscle weight will go up, so make it light to medium lifting 20-30 minutes is enough to see results in time OR you can do walking, its much easier than weights and its a hospital for your body, , 1 hour of brisk walking daily is good. You will burn extra 250-300 calories, meaning you get to eat more 250 calories on top of your calories goal, or just leave it be and lose more weight! Make sure you nourish your body well within those calories eat a variety of food Meat or fish Eggs 1 type of legumes 2 types of whole grain Fruits and berries Vegetables and herbs Yogurt

Excessive cardio reduces testosterone in men and it's viable for muscle loss

[@joelouden6592]

@@mambamentality2663 Excessive EXERCISE reduces testosterone, including strength training. Both long-duration, moderate cardio and short, high-intensity cardio cause an increase in testosterone just like strength training. Overtraining in bodybuilding will cause the same drop in testosterone as overtraining in endurance activities, and sometimes even more so due to muscle inflammation/cortisol. Plus, the testicles put out the same testosterone pulse regardless of body size. So a man carrying excess muscle will have a smaller amount of natural testosterone at any given time than a man with the same size frame carrying less muscle/weight. Even very lean muscle mass has fat mixed in with it and fat releases hormones like aromatase that converts testosterone into estrogen. All of the above is why bodybuilders and large strength athletes take steroids.

If you are already fat, you are im the perfect position. Lift and keep improving your lifts and you can basically chisel your body in timely fashion. All because you are used to eating so much and have essentially skipped the bulking process, keeping muscle takes a ton of energy, meaning whatever you eat now in 3 months wont even make you gain weight, you'd probably have to eat more to maintain your weight. If you are a skinny man, you need to eat. A lot. You need to get fat and turn it into muscle and cardio will not let you do that. Unless you are a competitive runner or swimmer, then you need to bulk and lift.

You need some cardio even if it’s 30 min daily. Your heart muscle is more important than your bicep muscle.

Thats y i avoid weight lifting... i just want to be slim

What man weighs 160 pounds

[@seffoli]

I started 4 weeks ago 100kg. I am 33yrs old 1.83cm. I was doing 40 mins cardio.( 30 mins of this walking to gym 15mins each way and 10mins Incline walking at treadmill) And 30-40mins full body workout 6 days a week. My calorie intake is 1500kcal a day. Mainly protein, similar to Keto . As of today i ve lost 6kg. I will continue this way and lets see what the results gonna be at the end of week 8.

[@umer4874]

Any progress?

[@tashyofficial]

Pls share

[@seffoli]

As of today 25.12.2023 i am 85.50kg. I do continue with Keto diet and now i can see a massive change . Next week it will be exactly 3 months since i started so really happy with progress. Also inhave cut down on cardio. I no longer do cardio only the walk take me to gym and back home which is roughly 30 mins walk thats all. I feel great and honestly all you need a proper discipline for 3 months. Nothing crazy. Just gym and watch your calorie. Simple as that.

[@seffoli]

Forgot to mention i go to gym max 4 or 5 times a week from beginning of month 2. I realised how important resting is. So no need to go 6 days or 7 days a week. Just enjoy while doing it.

[@strangescottvoiceacting5351]

I've been low-carb dieting and lost almost 70lbs. I was 255 lbs when I started in August, now 187. Ive started working out doing cycling and treadmill, then I do weightlifting. Now that I've lost the weight, I want to build the muscle.

[@hrestherson4481]

I do both

[@richasabharwal7939]

I'm in love with you

[@rlkinnard]

The correct answer is both, generally on different days. i do 4 days of running, one of which is HIIT, and 3 days of weight training. And, of course, I go for a walk several times a day. and don't forget core/balance/stretching.

[@JEFFREYFinger-j1n]

I started doing a mix of both. I do a circuit of several reps with light reps with a quarter mile on a recumbent bike in between sets. This is followed by a mile walk against a stop watch

[@mayiborrowadollar]

“jUsT dO bOtH” well duh. But some people don’t want to do both at the same time. It can be very daunting and not to mention pretty taxing for beginners.

[@satviktripathi7263]

Do weight training first and burn some calories. Once you are done with that, do some cardio to Increase the total calorie burn. This is the simplest method. Doing only cardio is the shittiest method to improve the body as you would start getting only leaner without any muscle growth except the calves or some muscles here and there.

[@ArtificalHistoryI]

Resistance training is superior but I prefer both. HIIT cardio 3 days a week and training everyday or 6 days a week

[@stoneyj1a1]

That's all great. but what about people have been lifting weights all their lives and still have lots of belly fat and love handles. How do I lose them? Should I cut the weights and just do cardio only?? Please help. I can't lose weight but I have gradually increased it over the years.

[@rudysmokinog8915]

There is no way to spot treat love handles or belly fat. Overall weight loss would do that. I say keep your weightlifting program but do cardio on your rest days. That's what I do

[@stoneyj1a1]

@@rudysmokinog8915 How many days a week do you work out? I'm doing 4 now and I don't know if I can fit in anymore.

[@rudysmokinog8915]

@@stoneyj1a1 I'm doing 4 days of lifting and Sunday is my cardio day... If you dont have alot of time try to finish off the days that you do work out with some cardio. Doesn't have to be nothing crazy man

@@stoneyj1a1 or you can try shadowboxing every morning before you start your day. (Cardio sucks)

[@BBLuster]

But what are you eating… I doubt it’s your activity level… it’s probably your diet.

[@VinesMoviesPranksVMP]

Just do mixture of both to look lean

How bout both

[@umer4874]

I am walking 4.5 km daily before and after gym combined. 1 hour of weight training, and machine cardio with weights . Stopped eating sugar, junk food, and limit home made food. I am 107kg tall and 21 years old is it ok?

[@riksstaden4927]

Sounds great! Check out your bmi to see if you're in a healthy range

[@biotaftw5341]

Would this change depending on how much you lift

[@twofacedhoe]

yes

[@andiogeng3465]

Actually works

[@johnballs4107]

how about doing both? hard to argue against that.

[@ryandeffley7652]

The real question would be what type of "weight" are you losing? The more muscle you lose, the more you slow your metabolic rate. As far as which one, I suggest doing both and scheduling it in a way where you get the best out of both of them. I personally love to jump rope for 20-30 min in the early AM to start my day. Then I lift in the early afternoon with no negative impact from the jump rope.

[@rickcarrasco6716]

So I do both every day I’ll do a little warm-up and then I do half hour weights and then 45 minute treadmill.

[@katheryntargaryen7870]

So sorry for the long story about to come but I need some advice. I'm a 5 foot 6 woman 25 years of age now. However, in 2020 I went from being 183 lbs to 138lbs. I lost the weight due to stress and problems that happened in my personal life. Obviously not healthy. I managed to keep most of the weight off for 3 years now but I've been fluctuating between 138lbs and 142lbs and I can't seem to lose the rest of my weight to around 128lbs. Today I was horrorfied to see my weight spike to 145lbs but idk if there are other outside factors. Please help. I want to stay in shape and look my best but I can't seem to lose the access weight to reach my goal. What do I do?

[@freefromeverythingx0528]

Hey..I am assuming that you tried all those steps like staying in a calorie deficit, Exercise etc. If yes then make sure that you are not stressed? Because Cortisol can increase your weight. Also, I'd recommend you to get your thyroid levels checked. In my case that was the reason why I was gaining weight and depressed.

[@monty4478]

You burn more cals pumping than cardio that's fact!

[@sterbprepper4798]

Tfs wrong with your eyes bro

[@StiffShot]

You really wanna lose weight? All you gotta do is to not eat before you weight lifting. Just drink protein powder. Eat after you workout. And you need to stay active don’t just seat at your house after eating your meal. Go out walk around… go to the mall or something. I went from 163 lbs to 152 lbs in 1 month.

[@faheemahmedsyed]

there is something called pre workout which is necessary to eat atleast 2 hours before your workout

[@StiffShot]

@@faheemahmedsyed you can do that if you want to gain muscles.

[@faheemahmedsyed]

@@StiffShot so u mean i can lift without eating anything before lifting? don’t u think that would make me feel less energetic during my session ?

[@StiffShot]

@@faheemahmedsyed I don’t know how your body will react. You should try it first and see if you feel less energetic. I’ve been doing it for months. I got used to it. Oh, and I drink protein powder before I lift weights. I just don’t eat any heavy meals like eggs or meats. Just the protein shake.

[@faheemahmedsyed]

@@StiffShot oh i see but sadly i don’t have protein powderr💔 anything else i can try?
