6 months ago I was 105 kg. My goal is leanmaxx. Right now I am 70 kg with 1 hour of walking and fitness every day and my body fat rate is between 10-12%.
My advice to you is to pay attention to:
- your protein intake,
- of course do cardio, but after I got down to a certain weight, doing too much cardio caused me to lose energy and muscle

no, you dont NEED cardio you just need to be in a caloric deficit why is this still a question in 2025, cardio just helps you, you dont NEED it to lose fat jfl

No. You need nothing apart from calorie deficit.

Cardio helps put you in a larger caloric deficit.

Or drugs

most effective way of losing weight, not getting lean, losing weight, and getting to a normal BMI is eating whole foods only, like eggs, meat, and doing a lot of cardio whether it is jogging or walking, swimming if u can, jump rope

then is a calorie deficit the most effective way of getting lean?

doing cardio speeds up weight loss, which feels more rewarding as you do it
