Hey,

I will be starting to lift next week. Gotten myself a special metabolic diet, where basically my doctor did a few tests and delivered a report after some time that is based on my metabolism that will keep me energized, healthy and stable etc - which also helps losing weight and maintaining muscle. Since my diet is figured out, I would like to ask experienced guys here about the lifting programme that suits best to me.

CURRENT STATS

  • Age: 18
  • Height: 186cm / ~6'1
  • Weight: 120kg / 264lbs
  • Bodyfat Ratio: ~32%

GOALS

  • Weight: ~87kg / ~190lbs
  • General Goals: First lose weight and drop to around 10-12% bodyfat (probably will take 8-12 months) and then start building muscle - my main goal is to be strong and look aesthetic. First step is to lose the excess body fat for sure; so the main goal is to drop to 15% bodyfat first, I want to achieve this is max 9-10 months.

There are a lot of workout routines/programs out there. I would like to hear the best one that suits best to my situation. I have no idea about them so I would be very thankful if you could help me here.

As I said, my first main goal is to lose weight as fast and healthy as I can - so for now, I don't care about getting stronger or building muscle; if anything, I would prefer to build muscles while I am able to lose fat well.

Please ask me anything if you need more information to give better suggestions.

Thanks! :)
