    You really can't do both. Create a small deficit and do some heavy lifting.

    And... It won't be fast. You must have patience.

    any good ways to burn fat fast

    Don't eat carbs. Carbs make you fat.

    gain more muscle tone?

    Lift heavy. Try Stronglifts 5x5 as a good starting point.

    You have three options. You can lose weight while retaining as much muscle as possible. You can maintain your current weight and lose a little fat while building a little muscle in a process called recomposition. Or you can start a bulk to build more muscle and then cut the fat later to reveal it.

    Three good threads to give you an idea of how each works:

    Totally fine for a beginner. I even did it as an intermediate lifter on a cut. Didn't last too long but it was good while it lasted.

    Burn fat fast? Whoa. I've never thought about that. Somebody should invent something to make that happen.

    I thought carbs are a source of energy if eaten before working out?

    Hydroxicut is one of the supplements found to do a lot of harm. Had a friend take whatever was the big weight loss drug at the time a number of years ago and ended up with a lifetime heart condition. DON'T DO IT!!

    Think about it for a sec - if that stuff really worked, do you think there would be as many overweight people walking around? There are no quick fixes, you just have to put in work. Do some research (using Google, it has tons of info), and put in the work.

    Carbs don't make you fat... and carbs are great if you're trying to build strength I hope this was a joke.

    OP, one loses fat based on the calorie deficit they are in. Trying to do it fast may compromise how you feel and possibly some energy since most try to do it eating minimal calories.
    Why do you HAVE to do it fast?

    Hey guy, I was being silly. Losing weight requires a calorie deficit, which means consuming fewer calories than you burn. You can do that by eating less, moving more, or a combination of the two. If you want to minimize your muscle loss while doing this, eat a good amount of protein ( various instructions on this but .8 g per pound of bodyweight is plenty) and do resistance exercise such as lifting weights. Also, use a reasonable calorie deficit.Trying to cut as fast as possible often ends in a loss of muscle, exhaustion, extreme hunger, and burn out.
