Yes, both could work... But in my current situation I cannot take on really restricting diet (fasting can totally wreck me unless its nighttime, fast metabolism, can't function without enough energy.) or rigorous exercise. My mental health is such that I can only manage things to an extent. I would exercise a whole lot if I just could but I can't do that. Also I feel like I'm right at the point where I'm too heavy, my ankles get badly stuck and sore from just going for walks, I can't even do that to the extent I would want to, let alone HIIT or anything more.
I would love to do deadlifts and squats, my irons have been waiting for several years now.. But I can't risk breaking my ankles. I'm pretty sure I have some kind of stress related problem there. Decades of drumming, riding bikes, hiking and weight lifting have surely taken a toll. Especially drumming is bad for ankles. I bet I'm +10lbs too heavy and the problems are starting to show at this weight and I'm sure this problem is a chronic one which can't be fixed. I've played drums for thirty nine years now, it can't come without taking a toll. Its kinda tricky situation, I feel that I can't exercise much and my mental health isn't good enough so most of the time I can't do much anything anyway. To be able to exercise more I should lose weight but how can I when I can't exercise much? I know slow burning cardio would help me a lot, meaning long walks and bike rides... But I can't do enough for now.
