Topic: Advice
Hi guys,
I'm 185cm high and I weight 78 kg.I pretty much hate myself like this and I want to change that. I want to lose like 8-10 kg of fat and gain some muscle.Because of that I got a diet plan made and now I'm thinking about the exercises.The past 2/3 years I haven't done anything fitness related and I'm afraid and ashamed to go to a gym ( I know that that is stupid ..) and so my mum I decided to buy some equipment for home,but I'm not really sure what would be best.I read at some sites that the best ways to lose weight are the treadmill and the elliptical and some say that the elliptical is better if the person using it hasn't run often and because of the pressure put on the joints when using the treadmill, I hope someone can give me advice on which to choose and also what weights should i get and which are the best exercises to do and please tell me if I'm missing something that I should do ?

Ideally, around 8am after some coffee and a relax. Normally, around 4:30am (sometimes as early as 3:30) because that's the only time I can get it all in.

Right now I walk in the AM 7 days a week. For my 3 weight training days, I've started working out with my husband after work... It's nice doing it together.

I meant to reply to my own question and then got completely sidetracked. I definitely prefer exercising first thing in the morning, fasted. However that's been hard with the weather and the need to run at the gym! It seems like I'm better at going to the gym around 1pm - well after breakfast, but before lunch.

So I got hurt over the weekend so I'm just doing my walking at 5 miles a day. Getting my water in and staying under carbs. I should be okay to go back to weight training this weekend.

Hey all! What's your favorite time of day to exercise? Does it depend on the exercise in question?
