Do y'all think that it's posible to gain muscle while simultaneously losing fat?

[dj181]

The best I ever did was to gain 6 and a half lean pounds while losing 2 and a half pounds of fat in 6 weeks time

[benchmstr]

of course.......look at levrone...

i usually always gain muscle while i am losing fat...

Regardless of what you read, I believe so. Maybe not naturally, unless youre working on muscle memory, but DEF with gear.

What's your supplement plan look like?

[dj181]

Well, I did mine without any gear. And I guess the most interesting thing about it was that this gain occured all in my legs and none on my upper body, but it made sense since I didnt gain a bit of strength in my upper body during this time period, but my leg press went up nearly 200 pounds.

Not naturally; how could that be possible? Caloric deficit=new muscle mass? Nope.

How about slight caloric surplus, plus heavy weight training?
You will lose bodyfat and your body composition will change. The body will be repairing the muscle and using the calories your body has available to do it.
I think in this case, science hasnt quite figured it out yet.

u cant stimulate muscle growth while burning fat?........


so when im building muscle using weights...... i burn no fat at that time at all?

and if i were doing high intensity cardio to burn fat i dont stimulate any muscle growth at all?

Spot on.

You must be stupid to believe that you cannot build muscle and burn fat at the same time.

thankyou


i thought i was going nuts

im pretty sure deicide is quite a sharp guy so i had to read it twice    haha

Agreed. People always rally behind science, and if science says no, then to them it means its not possible...
Well I hate to tell people, but science hasnt figured everything out yet... The laws of physics say a lot of stuff cant happen or wont work in a race engine, yet it does, and people dont know why.
People dont understand that science hasnt figured everything out yet, and that the theories they have now are just that... theories. They change every year.
Sometimes, what works in the real world flies in the face of what science says. Those people that base everything around science are robbing themselves, IMHO.

thats why science, and medicine is a "practice"...

Yup, but to a lot of people, science is never wrong, and they base everything on theories they read on the internet, rather than doing what is proven to work from real world experience.
There is such a disconnect from the science theory, and from what works in the real world. People like Fatpanda should figure that out, then maybe he wont be FATPanda anymore.

Fixed it.   

[Deicide]

Isn't a caloric surplus (however minor it may be) required for adding new muscle mass?

[Wiggs]

Of course...on juice and GH

there are a lot more variables to it than that...

You make it seem like it is a stupid question, yet those are the basic rules.
