You’re not supposed to burn any muscle
It doesn't sound kosher to me, but what do I know
What even is skinny fat?
Being skinny with a gut?
You only shoyld be reducing your total caloric intake by about 20 to 25%
I think I’ll be fine
Pretty much
I lost 30 pounds like 4 years ago because I had terrible heartburn and wasn’t eating
Skinny with a gut
And that was in a month or two
I’ve gained it back though and I think it was mostly from alcohol
For like 2 years I was drinking 1-3 drinks a day
A good website to check out, this guy knows his shit and backs up everything he says with studies.

He has a pretty good program. I'm just too lazy
He's also politically minded aswell
From what I’ve read you can’t really build muscle and lose weight at the same time
You can, it's just not much
They're called newbie gains
I’m going to focus on losing fat and then once I’m down to my goal I’ll start building muscle
New people to lifting usually can do it
that being said
new lifters experience the best gains
It's little gains
It's more or less leaning out and lifting to preserve what muscle you have
You also gain a small amount
Your quickest gains are when you're just starting out
Last summer I was going to the gym regularly and I gained weight because of my drinking and diet
Yes
Newbie gains
yeah
Diet is most important for losing fat
Yes
Also diet is much more important than lifting fyi sammy
Like
I know fam
not even for just losing fat
your gains will be shit when you build muscle if you eat like shit
Yup
That's why Templar wouldn't drink with us that one night
Alot of people that bulk end up gaining so much fat because they're only concerned with eating enough calories while totally disregarding where the calories are coming from
