my friend told me today that before i start any major exercise i should weight until most of the fat has gone then it will be easier to make muscle .

does anybody know if this is correct?

with any diet program, u lose water and muscle as well as fat, protein and exercise will keep your muscle mass and increase it in size, high intensity will burn more fat off giving you more definition, low intensity such as heavy weight will increase muscle mass, but does not look so good when burried beneath fat

ok so what sort of excercise would u say i need to do? i have a stepper i done an hour on that and crunches etc is that what i need to be doing ?

[Blahhhshsh]

depends what you r aiming for mate

i do treadmill and cross trainer monday, wednesday, friday 40 mins of each for cardio workout
tuesday, thursday, saturday weights extremely light virtually just the bar high amount of reps x 3 crunchies, press ups
and a 3-5 mile run first thing mon-sat

if you are looking to build muscle mass heavy weight, few reps crunchies ect to flatten tum

hope this helps

well i have lost most of my belly and my man boobs lol but just needs firming up i dont wanna gain massive amount of muscle. id just like to be slim but firm lol

go for a short programme of high intensity to burn the remaing fatty tissue, then switch to low intensity for a short programme to add a small amount of muscle mass, muscle mass looks better and you look slimmer if its not covered by fat, then switch to a maintenance work out which just burns any extra carbs, something like swimming couple of times a week is good for maintenance
