Gain Muscle and Lose fat at the same time!

[Sir Anabolic]

Hi guys. First post here! Just wanna say hi, and your opinion on my current plan.
I've been training for 1year now, i'm 5'8, 165 lbs and bf 15%.

My current plan goes like this:
-I'm doing HST (full-body workouts) on tuesday, thursday and saturday.
-On the days i do weight training, i bulk : eat 1,5 g protein/lb ; 3g carbs/lb ; 0.8 g fat/lb
-On Monday and Wednsday i do Cardio (moderate intensity on monday and High intensity on Wednsday) and these days i cut : eat 1,5 g protein/lb ; 1g carbs/lb ; 0.4 g fat/lb

What's your opinion on my plan ?

Thanks in advance

You should focus on gaining muscle mass first. It is not possible for you to loose fat while gaining muscle at the same time. Also, remember that you are recovering on your off days, so eating less will make it harder for you to gain muscle.

Anyway, the more muscle you have, the easier it will be for you to loose fat afterwards, don't forget it... so, bulk first, gain some more muscle and then cut! You'll loose some bodyfat easily that way.

I've been doing that for the last year. I've gain 30 pounds in 9 months, with some fat along too, and as i'm going on vacation, i'm doing a little cut, while trying to add muscle.

Should i focus just on cutting?

Well, considering your previous gains and your goals, I think you should focus on cutting, while trying to mantain your whole muscle mass. Basically, that's probably doing what you have been doing... but don't expect to gain muscle mass if you're trying to cut. However, if you manage to lower your bf, you'll feel bigger when you notice a better muscle definition.

Yeah, that's what i'm doing...
I'm just bulking for 3 days a week, to try to maximize my muscle mass gains, while cutting... and of course not expecting too much of it!
Thanks a lot !

Well you grow when you're not in the gym, so if you look at it that way you need to eat almost as much on the days that you don't train. What foods do you eat normally?
