M26, 6'4", SW: 345lbs, CW: 250lbs, GW: ?
I found this sub in 2018 and that year I made massive progress in my weight loss. All through CICO. I mostly ran, like hours a day.
Well, I still wasn't happy when I reached my lowest weight of 196lbs. It's a good weight for my height, but I still had a lot of flab and fat left. I realized I have very little muscle on my upper body - lower body is more muscular (I think it was the running).
2020 was a shit year for me in so many ways. I put on 50lbs.
I'm recovering from that. I'm tracking calories again, and I joined a taekwondo class that I absolutely adore.
I want to have a more built look and be strong. I just don't know where to start.
Should I go on a low deficit with cardio to get my weight down, then start lifting?
Does it make sense to lift weights on a calorie deficit?
I'm just not sure if I should focus on losing weight with cico, or start lifting more than running. And if I start lifting, I don't know how I should adjust my calories.
I caught myself this year before I let things get too bad. But now I want to go fill steam ahead. I realized my ideal body is not super skinny, but slim and toned.
I'd appreciate any advice and help with this.
