I used to compete in Men's physique contests. I did my last show when I was 50. I'm now 55 and retired from the competing. On show day, I would get down to about 8% body fat and was pretty ripped.
The trick to dropping weight is eating CLEAN. You will feel tons better and it works. Lift weights, do cardio... but the biggest difference is going to be what you are eating. Do your best to eliminate simple carbs. Complex carbs are so much better for you. Eat white meats, lean red meats are ok occasionally, veggies. Limit the fruit because of the sugars. When you eat, make sure you are eating your protein and complex carbs in the same meal. For example, a chicken breast and a sweet potato. Breakfast is a little trickier so I would eat oatmeal (simple carb) and egg whites (protein).
You don't need to limit the amount of food.... just the type of food. When I was training I ate 6 meals a day and was never hungry. Yet the fat flies off the body.
BTW, whoever invented burpees should be shot between the eyes. I f**king hate them.
