You don't exercise to lose weight
You stop eating to lose weight
It's an alright cardio.
Do not fall for the broscience "crossfit helps you build muscle" meme though

One cookie is like a half hour work.
Fatties are fat because they eat a lot and carelessly. OP probably drinks non-diet soft drinks.
One can of Coke is worth an hour in the gym.
Which one is easier to fix?
The difference between a regular fatty and a fatty that goes to the gym is that gym fatty is going to be disappointed when he doesn't turn into Brad Pitt in Fight Club when the only change in his life is that he does some mild calisthenics for an hour each day.

OP here, I actually been dieting for about 5 weeks now, I lost 12 pounds, i cut all sugar from diet and all junkfood (tho i did slip last night and had pizza with friends)
i been losing a steady 2 to 2.5 pounds a week from just the diet, but i wanna speed that up and start excising so 1 i can lose weight faster and 2 not end up being a flabby skinnyfat at the end.
my ideal would be 3.5 to 4 pounds of weightloss a week

Half an hour's work, for you.

Just keep doing what you're doing if you're losing weight. The more you research about diets and exercises the more likely you are to meme yourself. Keep it up.

Basically this.
Exercise, even if you devoted your entire life to it, can only burn so many calories. Even if you exercised strenuously for hours a day you could still eat all those calories back and more in one big meal. Count your calories and make sure to put yourself on a deficit of 500-1000 calories every day.

Outside of tdee estimates, 'calories used' in exercise is far less, and inconsistent, than it is 'measured'.
So relying solely on expending more calories to lose weight is half-assed and mostly ineffective unless you are also keeping track of your diet.
Measuring calories in food is a lot more consistent, and it's the base for losing weight with exercise in the first place.
If you don't know for sure how much you're eating in a day, doing extra exercise is just a shot in the dark, whereas if you count calories properly and eat at an appropriate deficit you will lose weight regardless of exercise.

Eat nothing but this for 6 months and do a calisthenics routine like Convict Conditioning or Defying Gravity starting from the very beginning, every other day. If you stick to this and don't falter, you will look like an entirely different person in six months.
You can start lifting too but if you're doing calisthenics then you HAVE to lose weight to progress.
