    I have a friend who says he has about 6% bodyfat while offseason, im just curious, ain’t that to low if you wanna maximize your results?

    or do you just have to eat a tiny amount more calories than what you burn?

    Steve is always on Q…

    You CAN run a calorie deficit AND still have enough to build muscle. You don’t need that many calories to build muscle and you can only put on so much muscle in a weeks time. Some of the cals used that create the deficit are come from muscles demanding extra calories for repairing and building; the calories for muscle building become PART of the caloric deficit. Getting stronger on a lift is a pretty good indication of muscle gain. Getting weaker on a lift is a good indication of muscle loss.

    to build muscle you need protein not calories in itself. For example eag whitey doesn’t have pretty mutch any fat and it’s protein rich. It is possible, guy in video, professional says so. And i know it also from my experience, your nutrition is key element

  • Lonao says:

    I can testify to this, I have been doing cardio to lose weight everyday, around 1 hour a day and have not lost any weight. About a month ago I started lifting weights everyday and I dropped my cardio to around three times a week and have lost a considerable amount of weight very quickly.

    It’s like magic! I just watch some show like dexter or house for an hour and lift for around 30 – 45 minutes of that time before bed and all weight problems just disappear.

    Could be, legaldropout. Here’s the test: can you lift more? If yes, than you’re gaining muscle. -Sam

  • spacedoutboy87 says:

    If you are trying to gain muscle while at the same time losing fat then you definately don’t want to be losing weight, for the exact reason you just gave. As muscle weighs more than fat, you want to be slowly putting on weight, and soon enough you will begin to see whether your mix of cardio and weights is right by how you look and feel

    Hey Steve! I’ve been weight training, doing cardio and eating well, last week I lost 3 pounds this week I’ve lost absoloutely nothing, despite a similar routine. Just wondering if thta is due to muscle gains, and it weighing more than fat accounting for the 0 pounds lost or gained. General feedback appreciated. Thanks you rock!

    Muscle memory is reflex, like flicking your knee when it’s struck, it’s remembered in the grey matter in your spine for shorter travel time & automatic response. You train new memories into it whenever you learn how to do something physical without thinking about it, hence the name.

  • VingyVorper says:

    Hello I read that when you perform Weight training the body cannot tap into fat as an energy source and only cardio can do this?

    So if you were to enter a caloric deficit by resistance training, would this not cause the body to enter a Catabolic state?
    I’m new to this so…:)
    Thanks Steve!

  • Sniegel says:

    There is muscle memory. Probably because strength training increases muscle cell nucleus count from donated satelite cells, increasing the amount of “protein factories” available to each muscle cell, thereby making it easier to rebuild lost muscle mass. There are probably other factors involved too but I think the cell nucleus count that increases which time is a big factor.

    No. That is totally false
