Hi everyone. I am a 16 year old male (about to turn 17) and I was wondering some methods I could use to get rid of my "fat" so I could start to get muscles. Last time I checked (which was about 7 months ago) I weighted 160 pounds and I've just been eating whatever I've felt like from fast food to dinner resturants.
I can't go into a gym because my mom works all of the time and I would have no ride there so I thought of home based workout sessions. The thing is my mom cooks many foods with "fats" or meat for me and my brother and so I can't get a healthy meal, I don't want her to go out of her way to make me a separate dinner every night.
What I've taken into account is to run every morning and to do sit ups and push ups. I think I should run around 5 am every morning but my friend says that you should work out before 4 am because if you don't then you can't sleep at night.
I need to know how many sit ups I should do daily (for example: sets per hour) and push ups.
I am also trying to eat healthy and limiting my consumtion of unhealthy meals.
