    Just go run in the park. Nowadays most of them have pull up bars. You can also do pushups and tricep exercises easily. Bodyweight fitness is great. A good chunk of people I see at the gym are either on their phone half the time or are there for social hour.

    And youre right its a mentality thing too.

    I have a sex swing. You can grab on to the straps and use it as a pull-up bar. Can also do crunches from it.

    You can't lift and not build mass. Also you are going to want to build mass, because once you cut you will realize how tiny and skinny your frame can get without a decent muscular build.

    Why not. You can lift and do whatever you want to do.

    Yea... If you do resistance excersizes and high reps you're not going to gain mass.

    Looking for a cheap, used recumbent bike. Doesn't need to be fancy, just fairly sturdy because I do interval training.

    Trying to save myself from driving all the way to the gym 4 times/week for 35-40 mins of cardio.

    I already have a muscular build. I used to lift before. Theres just layers of fat over it now. I want to drop at least 30 pounds. Thats my goal.

    Try eating less food. The money you save on groceries will buy all the exercise gadgets and gym memberships you want.

    You can if you don't eat enough. Whether you build mass or lose weight when lifting depends entirely on your diet.
