This 2 pics are BEFORE

This is now.

I was 83 and i lost 12 kilos so i am 71 now. I am 175cm. Should i lose more weight? And i dont know how to have muscles. Do i have to go to gym? or Can i workout at home? Advise me somethings to be a muscled man! (I am not English. if i text wrong sorry)

Well it's all subjective. What do you want? You don't have to go the gym if you don't want to, in fact, gyms are abominations in my view. You can do calisthenics (body weight exercises), which will enable you to get much stronger with little equipment and financial outlay. Provided you know how to vary and progress the exercises so they give you opportunity to get stronger and provide a challenge. There's various books, systems, youtube videos you can use. I like the one in Convict Conditioning.

Outside that. Whatever you want, whatever your goals are. I have huge respect for kung fu, martial arts, yoga, meditation, eating well. They all should flow together and make for a healthy outlook where one is 'doing without doing' ie staying healthy is a philosophy, an outlook, a way of life. Calisthenics are often quite similar to fu hu gong (martial crouching tiger exercises), yoga, traditional Indian wrestling conditioning exercises. You should see similarities between them all. That's when you know you're onto a good thing.

But this is my take. I like calisthenics, anyway.

i like swimming and Capoeira... but it is hard to learn capoeira just because of my money. expensive courses in my country... but i will try to go swimming.

I like Capoeira too! If you want to build muscles, you might get some ideas here! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnaLgcJ8kHw

Your weight compared to your height is normal, I don't think you need to lose more weight, but you can if you want to be a little slimmer. Keep in mind that when you build muscle you will also gain "weight" because muscle is heavier than fat. You can start off working out at home, body weight stuff if you haven't been working out, and I would suggest getting a set of dumbbells because there are a variety of exercises you can do with them for legs, back, arms, chest, etc. It depends on how much you want to build because eventually you might need an actual gym if you want to go heavier with weights, but it's not necessary, no.

thanks for answer. i want to lose my fat. althoug i will gain weight, i want to have muscle. I will swim. I dont like gym or dumbells... I like to swim. and I will try to swim every week

[jesshkah]

that will slim you down, but it won't exactly build a lot of muscle..

[Asker]
