Hope it's not too soon to plan a month of fat loss and conditioning; and seek recommendations.
I've fallen into pure strength work and I like it. One lift a day for 5x5 - 5 days a week. It will be nearly 4 months by Christmas. Because the sessions are short and it fits my schedule I have been consistent and feel good but the waist could do with losing 1-2 inches already (before Xmas and the inevitable feasting).
I will control my diet - Tim Ferris slow carb has worked in the past.
So what might be MOST effective for 1 month of training when motivation is high (the new year resolution)
Was planning on no strength work at all (restart Feb)
4-6 days a week of runs/ ballistics to shock the system.
Or 3 days a week of kettlebell complexes.
Or Hiit sessions
Or Walking an hour a day.
Male 50s by the way.
