Confusion
My personal goal is to get rid of extra weight, specially from upper body. I am not doing strengthening and heavy weight exercises. I do not want bulky body with muscles popping out. I want to develop a habit of doing two sessions of swimming per week and gradually develop potential to swim continuously for longer periods and distances. I want to maintain required flexibility.
But my gym-buddy has been strongly suggesting to start muscle strengthening routines right away. It has been just one month since I started gym. He suggested to develop bench press abilities with 30-40 kgs. His argument is that if I develop muscles I could lose more calories with lesser workouts. Besides, he also suggested, based on his personal experience, to develop biceps and chest as it would be easy at my current age of 27 than after a few years.
But I do not want to go to heavy weights and muscle building routines. I want to just stick to toning and some basic (but strenuous ) workouts like squats, pushups, situps and crunches, apart from ~40 mins of cardio. And then reach a safer weight zone of, say, 175 lbs (78-80 KG) in next 3-4 months and then start off with the heavy weight routines.
Don't know if I should do heavy weights now or wait for a few months !!
