[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]August was 2.5 months ago. Muscle is REALLY hard to build and you are really fat. That is why. Don’t give up now but it is way too soon to expect muscle when your body has a lot of fat to lose first. [/quote] +1 at this point if your main goal is to lose fat around your belly you are better off eating in a calorie deficit to focus on losing weight/fat while continuing to lift heavy to maintain the muscle that you have. [/quote] OP here - that's my theory too :) The only thing I thought I had working in my favor is that I was a very elite athlete at one point in my life - so I figured I'd have some muscle memory that would return. I honestly think I need to reduce the calories below 1600.[/quote] This is magical thinking. Or worse. Muscle memory is remembering how to ride a bike when you haven't in a long time, not sprout muscle fibers instantaneously like some sort of chia pet. [/quote]
