This may seem like an insanely silly question. I'm about 10lbs away from goal, but I've lost most of my weight through diet rather than exercise. I'm a classic example of "skinny fat." I'm not too worried about exercising to lose weight at this point, in fact, I'm purposely slowing my weight loss a bit to start getting in maintaining mode. So I'm now shifting my goal horizons to lowering my body's fat percentage.
I estimate my fat % to be 30-32%. I have a lot of jiggle, lol. I have no need to be in competitive athlete shape, but I'd like to be healthy and toned and strong. I goess I'd like to get my fat % number to around 25%.
My question is, what is the best type of exercise to lower fat %. I know that cardio will burn calories faster and strength training obviously tones and strengthens. I plan on doing a combination of both, but I would like to know which is more effective at lowering body fat. I'm assuming strength training to build muscle? But does that burn the fat or just build muscle?
In short. If somebody is focusing on lowering body fat percentage and not so much losing weight, how do they go about it?
