I'm currently two months into SL 5x5, and was wondering if there were any specific routines simple like SL more towards losing weight and cardio along with strength training.
Or should I just do cardio on my off days and progress like I habe been?

basically, cardio and like 2100-2000 calorie diet.if you are a dude.

>Or should I just do cardio on my off days and progress like I habe been?
Yes.
>>34975809
I do cardio in off days. Normally like 1hr erg UT2 or something. If I fell myself getting tired I take a day or two off.

>Or should I just do cardio on my off days and progress like I habe been?
Pretty much, yeah.
What do I do if I can't decide how I want to look in OP's pic, I'm currently an ex-fatty who could go either way once I start serious training

Kek, how about you deal with that when its a live option. You need to earn the luxury of choosing between being ripped or fridge-mode. For now, just focus on getting fitter.
>>34975862
you really don't get to choose in this case. assume both pictures are the same bf%
you will be whatever genetics predetermine you to be.
it's okay though, we go to the gym to look our best, not to look like someone else.

There's the problem, should I keep cutting to lose the rest of my fat, or start bulking and give up on losing my lovehandles
I'm torn
Alright thanks guys, recovering fatty here. I've gone from 230 to 215 in 4 months but I definitely need to step my cardio up to get under the 200 mark.
>tfw I didn't fall for the bearmode meme
>>34975886
Neither of OPs pics have love handles. Keep cutting.
>>34975899
very true. thanks man
visited my first gym today to see what's what, coach/owner wanted to get me on bulking and lifting asap. eh
>>34975887
290lbs to 190lbs ex-fatty here, you can do it man. getting under 200lbs was one of the happiest days of my measly life
