Lifting specifically, or any sort of physical activity? I’ve been running and IF for the past month in order to cut my BF %. I was at about 16%, but I’d like to get down to 12%.
- dvt 7y agoLifting; I did Stronglifts 5x5 3 times a week. Part of the reason I stopped is that it got kind of boring and I got absolutely sick of doing squats 3 times a week. It sucked, it was hard (especially on a caloric deficit), but it worked.
- mrosett 7y agoI've found that lifting is much better for weight loss than running/biking. I've gained weight while running 30-40 miles/week and typically lose weight while lifting (if I pay attention to my calories.) A lot of people say the same. If you're focused on BF%, lifting is even more appealing since you'll be building muscle/reducing bf% even at a constant weight.
