I am 17 years old and am attending High School.
Right now I am quite overweight, 235 pounds to be exact, and I am around 6 foot 1 inches. my BF percentage is 21.88% which isnt good.
Now I recently tried to develop a goal to lose fat, to purely lose fat, and do not care so much as for muscle gain, as I do not want to get more "bulk or big" but to be skinnier.
Now I have heard a wide variety of stories such as "if you do not workout properly your muscle will build under your fat and you will just look more blubbier."
Also I have heard from different sources about excercising. Some say that if you want to lose fat do 20 or so minutes of light resistance training before cardio and that will help you burn 200% or so more fat. And I also heard that by doing that method you are only bulking up, not cutting fat. Ive also heard that it is better to do cardio first.
So I am asking which method is the best? And if nothing i mentioned is good, what is a good excersice routine to do everytime i work out, and how long, how many days a week I should go work out. My goal is to only burn fat so i do not look as big as I am today, as I have a good amount of muscle under my fat. I do not want to gain muscle, so is that avoidable? Also in terms of Cardio is it better to do high intensity or say something like a continueous run? Should I lift weights more or do more cardio?
Sorry for all the questions, just curious so I can get my goals and mind straight on what I need to do.
