FAT LOSS WHILE BUILDING MUSCLE

By Skip La Cour

One the most common questions I am continually asked by many bodybuilders is, "Is it possible to lose body fat and gain muscle at the same time?" My answer is an emphatic YES!!!!

First of all, to build muscle, you must constantly overload the muscles. Heavy training is of utmost importance!

To lose body fat but still gain muscle, you must really watch your diet. Keep your diet high in quality protein to build and preserve your muscle and, of course, watch your fat intake.

But the trick is in your carbohydrate consumption! Not only in the amount you ingest, but also which kind.

Here is how I suggest you manipulate your carbohydrate consumption: For a couple of days, eat only vegetables for carbohydrates. Then go back to grains like rice, potatoes, and pasta for a couple of days. Rotate in this manner and see how you quickly you start melting the fat.

Because carbohydrates give you energy, this may become difficult at times. Nevertheless, it is very effective.

IN SUMMARY

· To build muscle, you need to train heavy.
· To build muscle, you must eat a lot of high-quality protein.
· To lose body fat, you must eat lean foods in an amount less than you burn. The best way to do so is restrict your carbohydrates in a rotating fashion.
· Doing cardiovascular exercise is also very helpful.
