    Squats and dealdlifts!!
  • The best I can think of, and I'm only suggesting this because I've seen better results myself, is Stronglift 5x5. It is a series of 5 exercises done over three days a week alternating them each day.

    Example:

    Day one: Squat, bench, deadlift.
    Day two: Squat, Overhead press, barbell rows.

    If you have never exercised before Start with just the bar itself for each exercise. You do 5 set of 5 reps each exercise. Every week increase the weight by 5 lbs from last week. So and Example:

    You squat the bar it weights 45lbs. Next week do the same workout but add 5 lbs to the total. So now do 50lbs for 5x5.

    It may not seem like much, but it is a full body workout.

    IF you want to do cardio keep it short and do something like sprints after each workout but for no more than 15 min. Cycle it 1min or 30 sec sprint then walk the same amount of time.

    First off, realize that it's not possible to target fat loss. For more on that, Google "spot reduction myth".
    I would follow the standard fat-loss plan of doing full-body strength training, and eating the right number of calories. Cardio may be added to speed up the fat loss. For strength training, follow a good program, like NROL, Stronglifts, Nerd Fitness, etc.
