Hey, Started lifting and going to the gym this week, really like it and feel a lot different (mentally) so far.

I started lifting and didn't really know what schedule to take, so I took some online information and decided to start with Lifting and giving two days rest period inbetween each session.

I'm currently chubby, 170cm for 75kg (Mostly fat, very little muscle) so i'm running a caloric deficit of 500cal while lifting because I first aim to get cut a bit before putting on muscle.

I was wondering if first of all what I was doing was ok or if there was a better way to do it, Secondly I'm doing light cardio before lifting but I was considering going to the gym everyday and doing cardio on my rest days, should I do that ?

I really know nothing about fitness or lifting so I would really appreciate if I could be guided in the right direction and to know if my routine is bad and I need to switch or if it's a good one.

Thanks for reading and answering me.
