Hello everyone...I have restarted my fitness journey and so far i have been doing cardio 30-45 mins 5 days a wk for about a month or so my question is should i also be lifting weights or just cardio for now until i lose more weight...confused.

    Yes start weights as soon as possible, I have lost 70 pounds and was not lifting weights just doing cardio, i'm losing the weight but flabby in alot of areas and now trying to tone up. Alot of people I know at the gym said to always do weights a few times a week to tone

    NOW!!!! I found that it completely changed the way my body looked. My hips slimmed down 2.5" once I hit the weights (or squats in this instance)....the shape was not changing w/weight loss alone. Plus more muscle will help increase the good 'ole metabolism! Inbox me if you want my program...I love it! It is full-body three days a week, roughly 45-minutes.
