    Yo just saying that first goal is easier to achieve in the kitchen than in the gym. It’s not the first time you heard it probably but I recently lost some weight to be back to 70kg without any exercise, just watched my intake for a while mostly just cutting on alcohol and high sugar stuff tbh.

      Increasing muscle increases metabolism, makes you burn fat faster. Do both

        Both work. But going to the gym also means you start on your next goal much sooner— build muscle.

      I know; I’m down almost 20kg over the last couple years by cutting out snacks and caloric drinks and portion control.
