I just started a new workout routine after about 3 months off and I wanted some input.
I’m 18, Male, and 115~120 kg (fat not muscle), 6″2~3 but have surprisingly good stamina for someone as overweight as me.
45 minutes power walking a day on a treadmill with no incline resulting in about 250 calories burnt according to the machine
3 sets of 8 reps @ comfortable weight for bench, the one where you face the machine and pull it toward you, like a weighted row, and the one where you pull the top bar thing down. I do the weights every 2 days on a home gym machine.
Also available to me in my home gym: elliptical/x trainer, leg press, and the one where you move your hands together. And also free weights and a real bench.
I am wondering mainly: should I use the x trainer instead of the treadmill and for how long? Or perhaps alternate? (I much prefer the treadmill) is my weight training good or should I change up the reps/sets/weight/exercises/frequency??
The goal is to lose weight fast. my parent said if i can lose 20-30 kg by December they’ll buy me an Armani suit.
P.S sorry i don’t know all the weight exercise names, hope you can workout what I’m talking about.
