I've debating whether or not to post this thread on here for the past week, but I'm gonna do it!! My apologies if this topic has beaten to death somewhere else!
I have a few questions for you gurus, I'm losing weight much better this time around than before (healthier foods and more regular workouts) but I am really confused about the lifting weights part of the workout.
I have a shape right now that I like but when I was bigger I was very top heavy, but right now I can see more of an hourglass (yay!) so my friend suggested I do squats with a kettle bell since it helps to tone the lower half of your body. Now my question is, in time (assuming I'm doing this regularly for awhile) will my bottom half shrink and my top half be the same size? I really don't want to be top heavy if I can avoid it.
This sounds like such a dumb question as I type it but I really didn't know where else to ask!
I keep doing cardio because it's fun for me, but I know I should incorporate some lifting, but I'm on a low budget and only have two 5lb dumbbells to work with, any suggestions with what else I could do with these two to tone my entire body opposed to just the bottom half?
