THE AGE OLD WEIGHTS VS CARDIO

ClairBears84

I would like to get some opinions......

I weigh 97 kg at the moment, I need to loose at least 20-23 kg. i have already lost 6 kg

I am 173 cm tall and have never been small, I have a rather strong muscle base....

should I loose the weigh first , then build on toning and more strength or should I incorporate it now already.

Will strength training ( bench pres / squats and some resistance training) help loose weight , I do not just want to compact my weight to be smaller, I want to be lighter too..... I don't want to weigh just a little less and be alot smaller, i would like weigh less and then be compact.

DOES THE MAKE ANY SENSE?

I feel so confused.

Current training
MON WED FRI - 10min cardio warm up and strength for 30-40 minutes
TUES THUR - CARDIO

EDIT - i eat 1400 cal a day , eating some back
