Loosing weight does mean loosing bodyfat, but it can also mean loosing muscle. Bodyfat needs to be even lower in order to loose the fat from those trouble areas. No way to spot reduce.Originally Posted by AnTiDeatHI'm very confused on the difference between them and how i measure body fat percentage.

But remember that, even when those who move you be kings or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that.

I'm on weightwatchers the odds of me loosing muscle is slim to none, it works slow i loose a max of 2 pounds a week, ususally .5 to 1 pound i go to the gym very often, right now all i want is physique by camp, im trying to go from a max of 158 to a max of 145 in 2 and a half months now.. its ognna be hard but ive been going to the gym every day
. So maybe it'll work, does cutting mean i wont be gaining muscle while im loosing weight? and if so will i at least build up a physique?

your diet is more important than your workout when it comes to fat loss.

ive b een working out for 6 month son and off but not doing anything properly so im still pretty much new and according to many posts 24 hours is sufficient for muscles to repair for a newbie. So i do the same muscles every other day.

lol mate, maybe if you lifted every other day you would weigh more than 134lbs. Ideal training for hypertrophy is short in duration but super-intense. If your doing this sort of training every weekday, you are going to run your body into the ground, hindering your gains.Originally Posted by bp0
