Training for muscle gain vs fat loss

Q: Do I need to train different for muscle gain vs fat loss? I want your arms & shoulders! What do you do?

A: One, the basics don’t change. Two, you just need to be the best version of you💚 The most common mistake I see people make is changing their training & nutrition every time the wind blows. You guys have to stick to something consistently for more than 2 weeks-30 days.⁣

The biggest difference between muscle gain & fat loss phases are going to be the amount of food you’re consuming. Your workouts shouldn’t change much, maybe volume & intensity to reduce the stress on your body in a calorie deficit depending on your biofeedback.⁣

Volume, intensity, & duration are your levers you can adjust any way that you need to tailor for your needs.⁣

Walking is really all the cardio you need if your strength training & food are on point.⁣

You don’t need to do endless circuit training, group training, & HIIT for results. ⁣

Sweating is not a point of progress or efficacy. ⁣

Your fit trackers are not 100% accurate when it comes to calorie burn. We shouldn’t be working out to earn or burn food anyways. It is fuel and should be treated as such.⁣

During fat loss phases we simply want to maintain as much lean muscle mass as possible because you’re eating in a deficit. ⁣

Muscle gain takes extra food & it is very hard to do both simultaneously. Commit to one or the other.⁣
