Hello! Help me make a routine

I've just started using an app called Freeletics. They have one both for lifting and for exercising without equipment. You can pay a small subscription fee and it makes you a personalized plan. All you have to do is do what it says every day. If you search for "freeletics bodyweight" or "freeletics lift" on YouTube there's a bunch of videos with the results people have had. I'm only a week in but I'm liking it so far.

Lifting just takes too long, and it's something I may have to hold off on until I blast this fat away. Or enough away.

"Lose weight through training... don't train to lose weight." I don't know the source of this quote, and I may be paraphrasing it.

Your real attitude is summed up with this little snippet:

Lifting just takes too long

Lazy. You're fucking lazy. This is an excuse and you know it. You know you're a fat softbody with little muscle tone and you feel a little more depressed every time you look in the mirror and see your fat flabby ass out of the shower. Then you wonder why Sally and Suzy look at you like you are an obstacle to avoid. But you know. You know.

Stop making excuses and do something you fat piece of shit.

If you're serious about getting in shape, you should be lifting more often than doing cardio. You should be working daily towards your fitness goals. Lifting has many other benefits and is something you should incorporate into your plans for the rest of your life.

1: for diet, the best thing to do is to cut your carb intake. No more soda, sweets/dessert, chips, free bread at restaurants, etc.

2: you won't lose the weight you want without exercise. Period. You need to lift. If you're set on not lifting, atleast get a pull-up bar from Walmart. I have the Perfect Fitness one. It's like $20. Do your pull-ups and push-ups 3 times a week (M/W/F). It's no replacement for lifting, but it is a good first step to losing the weight you want. I was 5'9" at 181. After 3 months, I'm down to 155. Make your routine and stick with it and you will see improvements. Then get to the fucking gym and start your strong lifts 5x5.

As other said, do stronglift or starting strength program. It's short and effective, fullbody 3 times a week (about 45 minutes).

Learn to feed yourself properly. Count your calories (many recommend myfitnesspal, I'd rather count myself but give it a try).

Estimate your caloric requirements here : https://tdeecalculator.net/ . Could be around 2500 Calories per day I guess. You need to cut fat, which means eating 2000 Calories per day (-500 compared to your requirements). You will lose 2 kgs per month.

Get to 10-15% bodyfat before considering eating more calories. Sugar, sodas and all this sweet shit should not be part of your diet. Pizza once a week maximum. Eat eggs, fish, chicken, meat, green vegetables, rice. PM me if you need more advice.

The fuck you talking about? Get in the gym and lift. I see 300lb fat motherfuckers moving some weight everyday. They are fucking hitting it hard. Lifting isn't just a short term goal..... its a life goal. Quit being a bitch and go to the fucking gym.
