Hi guys my names Gareth and I have never really struggle but since coming out of a 2 year relationship I have done the usual and become content but now after the break up I want to get my shape back.
My stats are height 5ft9, weight 180lb (12st12lb) waist 93.5cm, stomach 103cm age 34
I am very disappointed as almost 2 years a go to the day my stats were weight 147lb (10st 7lb) waist 86cm, stomach 89cm
There is a lot of work to do I know but I am determined to lose the weight and have joined the gym accordingly.
I am after advice as I want to get slim again no six pack or anything like that but have a decent shape and tone.
Is it better though to build muscle then cut down or lose the weight first. And also what is the best method?
Some people say HIT followed by short intense weights sessions doing low reps at high weight will cause significant weight loss without losing any exisiting muscle, the others say lots of cardio mainly and the other advice of low weights high reps.
What would be the best way? And with that method is it better to eat a normal amount of calories or go for a low calorie diet on toip of the routine for better results?
