The person who said you cannot lose weight and gain muscle at the same time is WRONG, WRONG, WRONG.You lose weight by consistently eating less calories than you body burns in a day. Your body then has to burn its fat (for energy) to make up the deficit. That is how weight is lost. If you drop too low below this caloric need, your body will start burning muscle and tissue to get its energy.You gain muscle by putting the muscle under stress (lifting weights, resistance exercises) and forcing it to rebuild itself after exertion. Of course, your body needs fuel in order to do this....The secret is to eat enough calories and nutrients to support your muscle growth, but at the same time keep that calorie count under your daily caloric need. Keeping your protein intake high during this time will help your muscle development too.It is completely possible to lose weight (body fat) and gain muscle at the same time. Since muscle weighs more than fat, the weight loss might be a little slower than if you were to drop your calories but not build muscle at the same time.Your local gym probably has trainers who can calculate your daily caloric requirement for you. That number depends on your age, height, weight, current body fat percentage, and activity level.
You CAN build muscle and burn fat at the same time. Cardiovascular exercise - anything that will get your heart rate up - will help you to burn fat. Strength training will help you build muscle. Eat healthy. Lots of lean meats, whole grains, fruits and veggies and lots of water.
A little thing called Diet...and Excercise... LOL good luck..The thumbs down do not make sense when other get thumbs up for a similar answer... In order to lose weight yuoo need to diet, and to build muscle you need to excercise or weight train, its as simple as that really.
Do a lot of push ups and sit ups. Try to get a Bowflex.
ok you CAN build muscle and burn fat at the same time but it will take alot longer then just trying to do one at a time by overfeeding or underfeeding
