So you've lost muscle mass without a decrease in strength? :(

Post by: Magnus on March 26, 2009, 01:37:46 AM: yes, exactly: bench, military press, curls and deadlifts remained the same, even with 20 lbs less

Post by: Tapeworm on March 26, 2009, 02:18:36 AM: If my lifts are dropping consistently, I assume I'm losing muscle. It's probably not as simple as that but it seems like a good gauge.

Post by: Mars on March 26, 2009, 04:04:12 AM: thats why my priority with cutting is keeping the strength high at all costs. never go training with light weights. keep heavy pressure on the muscles dont give them a reason to dissapair.

Yes, if you keep your training the same.

No, if you increase the weights you train with and train the nervous system more.

What's wrong with "you're welcome", beyond the lack of a capital and a period? You're = you are. As in, you are welcome.

Post by: Rami on March 27, 2009, 03:08:26 AM: More ATP can flow in muscle at any one time the bigger it is. Just put some water and creatine will increase ATP. just a bunch of junk fluid swelling from HGH or retarded bloat from eating salty carbs and drinking water. thus making your carcass a bigger blob than it already has to be.
