Title says it all, i want to lose weight and also build some muscle, ive have been hitting the gym and cutting my calories by 500-900cal for the past two months, while i am seeing some muscle growth, its not very substantial or something people around me will notice, ive also lost about 2kgs which is not much so i am thinking of doing a 200cal surplus for a month to see how it goes I wanted to get some advice as well as read other people’s experiences
Machines are good too - you can really push yourself to maximum exertion (to where you are jello on the last rep of each set).
This 5-minute video shows the power of lifting intensity.
A lot of people who lift are just “going through the motions”, instead of “pushing your body to the new limit”.
