You can do whatever exercise/weight lifting you want, but the most important part is still counting your calories..
Once you start doing it in an...
If you`re losing 3.5 kg a week, then obviously you`re doing something wrong..
You`re probably burning 1 or 1.5 kg of fat and 2 to 2.5 kg of muscle.
At the end of the day, you`ll weight less and...
No, you can`t lose 5 kg of fat in 1 week.
You can lose 5 kg of water in less than 1 day though if the only thing you care about is the numbers on the scale =D
I had around 20-24% BF and I started dieting and cutting first, the reason being I could actually see the progress easily in the mirror.
If I had started bulking first, I`d not see much at the...
I`m pretty sure you`re a troll.
If you lack education on nutrition, you can read the posts on this forum, dedicate some time to it and learn, that will get you where you want 100% guaranteed.

It`s safe, but the chicken will have a different feel to it, like it`s made of rubber. Also, if you`re defrosting it, i`d say use the defrost option, and it`ll be even safer.
Leaner meat just means you`ll be able to eat more of it, since protein has less calories than fat.
The body can break down either chicken or meat at about the same rate.. since chicken usually less...
The safest way would be to program your macros, then incorporate the cardio and depending on how much cardio you do, eat more proportionally to what you had in the beginning.. So I`d say lower the...
Like I said, it`s 75g only on days I don`t work out, plus I had a really high body fat % when I started.
Today for example, it went up to 92g of protein, and all I did was around 35 minutes of...
Firstly, i agree with repower, if it`s working for you, keep it up, and if you ever feel something is wrong or not working as it was, then you look for some changes.
