Hi guys,

Its been quite sometime since i last visited this thread.

But to make things short, I'm actually trying to lose the fats and slowly tone up my body before talking about anything else.

Many years ago, someone actually taught me to build my big muscles first to accelerate my metabolism level which in turn will help me burn fat all day long no matter what i'm doing.

So I've been hitting the gym doing cardio for 30 minutes everytime, and then starts working on core muscles.

I've also been told to follow rippetoe's workout, but i'm not sure if its still relevant now so i do not follow them anymore (another main reason is that it requires alot of free weight and i'm not so comfortable doing free weight now since i've lost touch with doing fitness for quite sometime, so i would like to slowly build up the fundamentals then only work towards the ultimate goal.

Attached are some measurement i took since 1st january 2012 (when i made decision to rejoin gym and start getting fit again)

Hope it gives you some insight on how to advice me further from here. Unfortunately I've not been taking photos of myself, so i could not show, but I have pretty big tummy which is all fats, which is of course my first priority to get rid off.

I'm also aware that there's no such thing as targetted area reduce, so i wont be asking you how to kick off the tummy, I know i'll have to do it slowly and it takes very long time.

Please see what you can advice me base on diet and workout.

Thank you in advance.



I know its not too clear, so here's the description when i just got started.
