So I’ve been out of the game a couple of years, I did a bit of calisthenics but I’m too fat now to go at that and also I was never flexible which brought a bit of a wall to that path.

I’ve about 10kg put on past my resting happy weight and 13-15kg past my prime. I’m looking to drop weight first and foremost and maybe build stamina.

I have my own barriers tl push through, hoping this restart takes but mostly I now have to be self motivated because a change in location means no classes only gym access.

So… Could anyone provide a quick 45-60 minute routine to get me started. I’m 183cm and 100kg.

    Just saying, if your goal is to lose weight, you’ll be better off focusing on your diet.

      100% a part of this. My diet is very linked to activity, I will overeat and snack when I’m not working out but if I have a routine I will eat better and less.

        Sorry you’re right, you definitely need both to lose weight. I’m just emphasizing, if you already have a decent workout routine (ie calisthenics a couple times a week like OP), then in my experience, it’s much easier to lose weight than work it off through exercise.

        I’ll frame it this way as well. People can be 50+lbs overweight (me) and still go to the gym regularly. On the flip, I find it much less common that people are obese and also have a healthy diet and food relationship.
