resistance training is as important as cardio, maybe even more so.

but re: cardio i'm doing low intensity interval training- LIIT
japanese walking, alternating between three minutes of brisk walking and three minutes of slower walking for a total of 30 minutes.

but i only do cardio a couple times a week right now, my goal is adding muscle mass. So i don't want to use up calories doing cardio yet. no trt for me either, i don't want to get trt gut, see joe rogan. so all diet. But i have to keep my protein intake at 100g per day max.

i'm giving myself 1 year to add muscle before i pivot to a cutting phase and do more LIIT training, prolly 2x a day 6 days a week and cut the calories.
All is fine, but you will need more protein. I eat around 200g per day...and only weight around 90kg. 100g won't bring you far, you need that much just for basic body needs, without any workout.
