I gained a bunch of weight over the last few years and was like 20lbs overweight, now I'm at the high end or a little over for my height, and still have fat around my midsection. I quit drinking for the most part, and my diet is pretty good right now since getting on anti-depressants and not snacking all night.
I'd like to get some muscles, but I hate gyms. I've been doing calisthenics indoors a few times a week. I also have some dumbells, and will jog or hike 2 or 3 times a week.
Should I think about getting more weights or just stick with this routine for now?
I'm sure there's more bodyweight stuff you could throw in without adding too much difficulty/effort but honestly I think that sounds like a really good start, all I would say as someone who is always working on this stuff is that there's no substitute for consistency. in my experience
if weight loss is your primary concern, the eating less/better and cutting out booze is more likely to be the thing that gets results than exercise (though of course that + regular exercise is great)
I'd like to lose weight, but also wouldn't mind looking in the mirror and seeing myself looking cut.
Keep in mind that takes a lot of time. You aren't going to see anything for months. It's a long grind.
