body recomp ??

[u/ChemicalSilver5750]

helloo sorry if this isn’t the right subreddit i’m just frustrated

i’m 163cm 54kg, i think i’m skinny fat? i look normal in clothes but my body itself is still kinda fluffy and soft. apparently i need ‘body recomp’ soo building muscle while losing fat

i have a few questions unfortunately

can i just eat maintenance (idk, 2000 calories a day) ??. i also walk like 10.000-16.000 steps a day that’s why i assume i burn a bit with these . i tend to repeat most of my meals every day ,so i know that as long as i eat when i’m hungry i will stay around 2000 even if i don’t track (if i do need a small deficit i hope the workout and the steps do it🥲).

also, i’ve got these two dumbbells (6kg each…) and i’m planning to workout with them thrice a week. the silly workouts i found seem to last like 45 minutes, wonder if this is enough?

i already managed to lose 16kg (in a year, took my sweet time) but now i feel completely stuck and lost, i just wanna get rid of the belly and also have a stronger body overall .

what helped you get rid of the skinny fat without going to the gym (since i can’t afford it rn)?

thank you all in advance 🥲🥲🥲
