Im currently 16 and i am about 6ft2 inches tall and weigh at 195lb. I currently do not want to bulk as i don't want to gain no more weight, i also do not want to cut yet. I worked out for a month now and have enjoyed lifting heavy weights more then light, but i want an increase in muscle mass and also want to loose fat in the process. So what if i were to lift heavy but eat a low cal diet with loads of protein and only 1 carb meal which is before workout? What would i gain and loose doing this? Please help me, need the best advice possible. I am dedicated and want a decent body!
Lifting heavy while on low cals? it all comes down to calories in vs calories out. If you take in more then youll gain weight. If taking in less youll lose weight. So by doing what you plan on doing youll essentially be cutting. To build muscle you need to take in more calories than burned. Your new to the gym so youll gain muscle and lose fat for a short period of time but after that youll have to decide whether you want to cut or bulk. But honestly your 16. Dont stress over this stuff, your still young. Just have fun and be smart about food choices.
