Care to share tips for toning up while i lose weight?

btfullerton

I am pretty unfamiliar with exercise to be honest. i enjoy walking though. Do you guys have any suggestions as to what kinds of exercises that are somewhat easy enough for a beginner and that i can do inside? my brother has a kettlebell he told me i could i use but i have heard that if i dont know how to use one properly i could hurt myself and i dont want that.

Goblet squats are a great place to start.

Google kettlebell workouts. There's tons.

This thread had some recommended kettle bell resources in it (I don't know much about it TBH but I figured the respondents here mentioned some good places to look). Good luck.

Any kind of resistance training, along with a moderate deficit, and adequate protein will help you reduce body fat while maintaining muscle.

Bodyweight exercises are a good place to start

Well, for the super thread on different types of programs, from BW to Dumbbell to Barbell (sorry I don't think there are any kettle bell exercises listed here), check this one out:

Since you like walking a lot, I'd recommend that u walk as your form of cardio and do basic excercise. No weights.. try this: do 50 push-ups per day, 50 body squats and 50 pull-ups (assisted). As basic as it gets. Once your body gets used to it, start to use weights

Daily Workout Apps has nice workouts and is easy to use. Level 1 of each category has good basic moves. The free version is fine but the pro version has kettlebell exercises as well, plus Pilates and ball exercises. The pro version is not a subscription so that is even better.
