Hi There,
My 2 cents/penny about fat loss is to combine resistance training and cardio. Successful fat loss campaign is mainly about
changing body composition. That said, you can pretty much gain the result from any good resistance-cardio program which
does not advise excessive cardio ratio compared to resistance training. You can resistance train by using your own body weight.
That said I suggest you either search various previous thread on the subject on here in the forum or hire a COMPETENT personal
trainer. Just please ensure you take from what is based on science, anatomy and physiology. EDUCATION is important. I would stay away from any comment made out of personal preference and/or Myth about lifting Heavy --- Especially hypertrophy. Just like you I have heard about this "Bulk" Regardless of the connotation the meaning has. Fact is MUSCLE require water. There is a possibility to gain some water after a hypertrophy cycle. Especially if you are new to lifting 75, 80 or over per cent rep max. This water is what "some" folks call fat gain. The same fat "disappear" once the exerciser switch to another type of rotation, So logically fat can only disappear from a calory deficit and training. 70-80% from NUTRITION. So this temporary "fat gain"does not make sense IMO.
That said
you have previously had good reply from your own thread asking about fat loss
