    Hi All,

    Weight height, etc?

    Definition follows bodyfat

    Bodyfat follows diet and cardio.

    Welcome to the forum. I'm late 50's and for most of my life, I was a power lifter. Several years ago, I was exactly where you're at. I was big and round and middle aged. I wanted to change my look and my training. I started to lift like a body builder instead of a weight lifter. The biggest changes was my diet. I ate like a body builder (controlled macros, 6 meals a day) instead of a weight lifter (eat everything in sight). I also started running cutting cycles rather than bulking cycles. My favorite cycle is Test/Mast. It takes a while but I still look like my avatar. Good luck

    Definitely clean up your diet. Rice, beans, good carbohydrates, salads, lean protein, vegetables, fruit, and grains. And the only way for it to work is be consistent with your diet. Do HIIT training and also traditional cardiovascular training. I wouldn't worry too much about the heavy weights. If you've been doing it awhile keep doing that but work with other training ranges like 8-12 reps 12-15 reps 15-20 reps 20-30 reps and then higher when you have better muscle endurance-work up to to it. Look into crossfit also. Include variety also.
