NoMoYoYo:
I'll admit I haven't done much exercise at all since starting this gain. I go on short walks and took my kids swimming twice but thats about it. I haven't touched a weight or other strength training since the beginning of July.
Munchies:
I would get back into it. Depending on how you go about things, you won't lose weight by exercising. If anything, it will allow you to be more comfortable as you gain weight.
NoMoYoYo:
As I've mentioned in other topics, I love how soft this gain has been. I want to gain even more softness. In my belly, in my chest. I want to be squishy and jiggly. Could strength training affect that?
Unless you are putting in the work to make serious muscle gains, it will not. If anything, it will help you in your goal to be squishy.
Your body burns visceral fat (the hard fat surrounding your organs) before it burns subcutaneous fat (the squishy fat under your skin). So if you do light-to moderate strength training and cardio, it will help you to be softer than if you didn't exercise at all. You just have to keep up your calorie intake.
