New! and need help ^^

[Fatphobia]

hi everyone.

for the past few days i have been reading so many articles/guides about HIIT and Strength to cut down fat.

I am about 5'10" and weigh around 220 lb. my BF is around 30-35%

i came up w/ this plan.

2 days of lifting weight
3/4 days of HIIT. i am a beginner so i started with

1 min @ 7 mph sprint followed by 1-1.5 minutes of 3.5 mph walk.
i do that for around 20 mins.

What do you guys think of this plan?
Also i need help with my diet plan.
how much calories will i need a day?
For the past 2 weeks i have been eating subway. I don't know if the bread from subway is good or bad for me.

Thanks all

Read the stickies. There is nothing wrong with Subway so long as you're making healthy choices there.

7mph isn't a sprint. Read the HIIT thread. Keepping up with your heart rate while you're doing cardio can be very advantageous.

Why do all people in american BODYBUILDING forum seem to be only interested in fat loss?

of course not all, but a large majority.


Please don't be angry, it's just a question...

...I find it very strange

for me its because i have tried losing 40 lbs just w/ diet and a little bit of exercise but it was hard to maintain. Once i started eating normal w/o exercise, i gained 25 lbs back. That is why i am trying to lose weight while keeping muscle lost at minimum.
