New to exercising, please help?

[Anonymous]

I am 20 my height is 162.56cms and I weight 165lbs. I have a proportionate body, do you think I am fat? Well my bf thinks that I look good. But I feel that I need to reduce some weight. I hate cardio. I love to do strenght training. I think more than I need to loose weight I need to tone up my body and loose some body fat. I am new to exercising please help. Plus I don't want to join a gym is there any way I can do it at home. I have treadmill, cross trainer, dumbells at home.

Just run on the treadmill for an hour or two a day, or just go jogging. Honestly cardio is the best way to lose weight and has more health benefits than any other method of exercise. Strength training is fine as well and something you should also work on, but if you want to lose weight you'll need the cardio too -- otherwise you'll just be big and buff instead of big.

And of course eat healthy, and that doesn't mean cutting out fats and gorging on protein. There's plenty of places to help you with this like: https://www.supertracker.usda.gov/

Focus on your diet. Less carbs intake (100grams/day max) and overall just be more active.

To me 5' 4" 100 lbs sounds right.

You don't need a gym. Just eat less.

I need to tone up my body what sounds good to you in order to do that?

You need to do a cut. If you want a lifter body, lift, eat protein and cut calories.
