Hi there guys and girls
I am currently around 185 pounds and 5'10/5'11, I am looking to lost at least 1 stone (14 pounds) possibly 2 >.<
In terms of muscle mass I have a decent amount, I am more looking to lose a lot of fat quickly and then get onto the weight training more. My current schedule is really, really mass increase based, so am looking for advice to change it.
Monday chest
press ups - 3 sets of as many as possible
chest press machine - 3 sets of 8 reps
Incline Press machine - 3 sets of 8 reps
Chest fly - 3 sets of 8 reps
Tuesday - Back
Seated rows - 3 sets of 8 reps
Lat Pulldowns - 3 sets of 8 reps
T-Bar rows - 3 sets of 8 reps
Wednesday - Shoulders
Arnold Dumbell Press - 3 sets of 8 reps
Lateral Raises - 3 sets of 8 reps
Front Raises - 3 sets of 8 reps
Thursday - Biceps/Triceps
Curl Machine - 3 sets of 8 reps
Cable Curls - 3 sets of 8 reps
Hammer Curls - 3 sets of 8 reps
Tricep pushdowns - 3 sets of 8 reps
Friday - Legs
I don't have the machine names right now, but they are all the ones where you push down wards or outwards with your feet flat on them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am wondering whether to keep this schedule and add in say 30 minutes running, 15 minutes cycling and 1000/1500 metre row? 2/3 times a week on top of what I do or start fresh schedule. Also I heard for fat burning it is best to run when you wake up and before you eat, is this true?
My diet at the moment I am trying to just eat as little as possible and of the right stuff (until I get down to a weight I like and I can start eating slightly more again). I try and eat a large amount of tuna/eggs at lunch for my protein and have an average dinner e.g. cod, mashpotatoe and runner beans also I forgot -> cereal in the morning.
Much appriciation.

If I felt weak or something I would re-assess. 3 meals a day is over 1600 calorie limit
