[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Try more cardio. I did a 12 week lifting plan and really didn’t see much change. Yes, I was lifting heavy. I followed it to the letter. My diet was pretty good and I tracked calories. It didn’t work for me and sounds like it’s not working for you. And no, I wasn’t about to work hard for 12 weeks and wait even longer to see changes.

Terrible advice. it didn't work for you because you had no patience and didn't give it time. You also only saw the exercise as a means to an end vs something that will benefit your body.  Also sounds like you weren't very careful with your diet and losing weight is 90% diet.

now if your main going is to see a lower number on the scale and you don't care if that that is through losing fat or muscle then do whatever exercise/cardio you want and cut your calories, but this is a very short sighted goal. In the long run you will look better, your body will be stronger and your metabolism won't take as much of a hit if you maintain your muscle mass if you are lifting heavy. [/quote]
