RE: Mental Health & Powerlifting Training Cycle, 8 Week Cycle Check-in
Not necessarily. It depends what one’s fitness goals are. Cardio will not only cause you to lose fat, but also muscle. So it all depends on how much fat someone has and wants to lose
i want to lose 25-30 pounds of fat
Well, in my opinion, there’s no way to measure pounds of fat or even pounds of muscle. So if it’s body fat you’d like to lose to obtain, your biggest aid with be your nutrition first and then exercising. People thing they can cheat themselves through fat loss when they can’t.
Instead of going of the number on the scale, you should be going off what you see in the mirror. That’ll be your best tool to track your progress.
i make sure i get plenty of protein and exercise to make sure im in a caloric deficit to lose fat. thats my way at the moment
Nice, I’m sure you’re already staying away for simple carbs and keeping your fat intake at a minimum as well
yeah im pretty good at counting calories
Awesome! Keep it up!
