You and Classic suggest ways in which I could make my daily routine more effective. I get that.

But Classic, I don't need to add more weight in order to get my heart and lungs working.
I am hauling around 250lb to start with.
Your heart and lungs adapt to what to you do regularly, so you need to keep ramping it up if you wish to get fitter and/or lose weight. Also, you need to build muscle -it helps increase metabolism. yes, muscle is heavier than fat, but you'll lose more fat than you'll build muscle, and your body will take on a better shape so you'll feel good and it will be easier to exercise so you'll do it more...... etc.
