Good recomp

can you recommend something that allows one to burn fat and gain muscle?
if in doubt, gain muscle has precedence over losing fat.

[masonmarin18]

No supplement is going to do that for you without a proper calculated diet.

[drooks10]

Yeah, that's pretty hard to do, man. If you are looking to gain muscle, then you should look into our products of IGF-2 and Drive. Both of them have some great reviews.

proper=high on protein and low on carbs/fat?

proper=high on protein and low on carbs/fat?

Probably more like high protein and highish fat with carbs low and cycled. Lower carbs most days... But increase them several times per week and maybe even a very high carb day each week, eating around maintenance calories but zig zagging up and down

[masonmarin18]

I am talking about +20% cal of your maintenance calories on workout days -20% on your rest days. If you lift 3x a week that is. You need to carb cycle and take low carb on off days. But you need to be able to count calories, macros, plug them in and use precise numbers until you see what fits. You still need a caloric deficit each week but a small one, with enough cals / carbs to pust on some muscle mass on your training days without the fat.

This is very tough to do, you need to know your body inside and out.

I already take high protein, but I tend to keep low on fat if I can, medium carbs. and yes, I train 3 days per week. except this week and the next one, as gym will be closed.

Nothing wrong with carbs but definitely get your fat requirements.

fat requirements?
I take 2g of fish oil at breakfast

[masonmarin18]

lol

[WARBIRDWS6]

Fish oil supplementation is good....but they mean also take in a decent amount of fat in your daily diet as well. For the fish oil try to get something with 3g+ of EPA/DHA...hard to find fish oil caps dosed properly, but just read the label. Fat is good for anabolism, it's not your enemy...carbs are (jk on the carb comment )

[mr.cooper69]

fat requirements?

Start at 0.5g fat/lb BW

[WARBIRDWS6]

Start at 0.5g fat/lb BW

Yeah I routinely hit ~100g plus when low carbing or moderate-carbing during cut or recomp w/o even having to give it any thought. its hard not to right?

Best advice on here is the advice of a caloric diet,proper training,cardio and the right foods...supps wont do it for u,so pay attention before u start blowing away your hard earned money...Certain supps MAY assist in the aiding of fat loss,as long as your diet is spot on. So do proper investigating of the supp of intetest and its benefits.

At one point in my life i stopped training for yrs and well got very over weight...i lost about 70 lbs in just about 8-9 months and didnt use one supp,only whey protein..Food and cardio and weigt training..Though i had expierince as i always had trained and dieted in general,so i knew what was needed to lose weight.But ,an hour of cardio atleast 4-5 days a week,weight lifting ,low carbs,pleny of greens and protein and some good fats...and u can lose all that u want.Like i said i didnt use a single supplement unless u count a multi,fish oil,flax oil and whey as a supp.

Best of Luck

it's not difficult to lose weight if there is a lot of excess. matter is when one is somewhat near the goal where everything slows down.
but gaining muscle is downright impossible for me!

Hows your form? How often r u eating and wat are u eating? Some ppl just take longer to gain muscle...stay focused n just keep at it

[Dark_Ansem]

I tend to eat protein low on fat (either turkey or powder) like 2 times per day in addition to meals, often with either 4 almonds or 2 nuts.

[WARBIRDWS6]

This may be the problem, not enough fat in the diet to go along with the protein. just go higher on the fat, lower on the carbs, and stay high on the protein for a month or more and see if it helps any.

why is that, if I may ask? I've been taught that fat is the enemy
