Hello,
5'9", 35 year old male, bodyweight 175.
Smaller to medium body frame.
Don't know body fat % but guessing about 25%
Sorry no image.
My greatest concern is the belly fat. I could easily pinch about an inch.
I want to gain more muscle in chest and arms, but I suspect that maybe I should be focusing on just getting the body fat off then build up muscle.
I was planning on simply using the "myfitnesspal" program to track calories, exercise more, still lift weights...but ensure I am calorie deficient to lose weight.
Question:
1. Is this a good plan to lose the body fat first?
2. As a rough guess....just rough guess....If 175, 5'9" and 25% body fat, about how much weight do I need to lose. I assumed a target weight of about 165?
Thanks
