I'm struggling with understanding how recomps are achieved, are these processes mutually exclusive, or can they happen simultaneously? It seems if you are at a calorie deficet theres no way (no matter the nutrient breakdown) to grow. Im just not understanding how you can recomp, it seems to be either you are at a deficiet or not, and if your at a surplus heres where it matters the diet/nutrient breakdown on what kind of weight you put on. So anyways I feel like I'm missing something, anyone have any input on how recomps are done. The only possible way as it seems to me right now to recomp (being very uninformed) is maybe you tend to be at a deficit with high levels of protein for say 20 hours (not losing much lean mass), then in a very active anabolic window right after workouts one eats at a surplus for 4 hours, allowing them to eat at a surplus and allow for growth while not storing many calories in this surplus timeframe. Some clarity from someone on this would be great
