Well, the weight in my face (chubby cheeks) went bye bye.... and an overall outer layer of fat, went away as well. But yes, I did lose weight, but walking seems more like a maintenance thing. I'm thinking of getting a membership to planet fitness ($10 a month). Now, I just have to find out which machines I should focus on. Any suggestions?
i would recommend focusing on compound lift machines mainly in the higher rep ranges. you could do them any way you want, just make sure to hit your entire body and go to failure and focus on contracting muscles instead of how much weight you are lifting. also if you cycle through different machines with little to no rest in between you can keep your heart rate up and hit cardio as well. you can run a mile at the end of the workout if you want to do some more or some sprints on the stairmaster for a few minutes etc....
