Ep 136: Can you burn fat and build muscle at the same time?
Can you burn fat and build muscle simultaneously? This is a question we hear every single day and almost 99% of the time when we first start working with a client. And to answer this question, it’s going to be dependent on a handful of different factors: What is your training age? Are you a newbie or have you been at it for a while? What is your bodyweight? Are you overweight, stable or wanting to gain weight? Which of these groups needs to prioritize building muscle first? (This one might surprise you) The importance of high energy flux and consistency With all the above considered, unrealistic expectations that you’ll be able to burn fat and build muscle at a very high level at the same time tends to be the obstacle getting in the way of seeing the progress you want to see. Therefore, the Rebel crew and I wanted to sit down and have a very honest conversation around whether or not you should attempt to aggressively build muscle and lean out simultaneously so you can reach and sustain your physique goals long-term.
