Hi Im male, 23 years old, weighing in at 172lbs.

recently lost about 20lbs in the past 12 months through mostly diet. but now struggling to lose my sides and other loose areas. dieting just doesn't seem to cut it anymore as my weight just fluctuates up and down.

ive recently joined a gym. trying to go 3 times a week. i know that's not an awful lot but work commitments are tough.

my regime is to do 20-30 mins intense/moderate cardio. then machine weights focusing on my core, pectorals and arms.
then finish with a 20 minute moderate swim.

    If you only have 3 days you can go, drop the cardio and google either starting strength or Stronglifts - you'll thank me :)

    ETA: haha you don't have to drop the cardio (that's just me) but do it AFTER the weights.

    This

    Your legs may be okay but your glutes are the biggest muscles, closely followed by quads - you're looking to burn fat aren't you?
