Re: Workout/Staying in Shape Thread
Right now I'm 5'8 and ~173 pounds. I want to get down to 165. Is it better to devote all of my workouts to cardio or should I stick to my normal weight lifting workouts (5x a week) but consume less calories?
What's the best way to go about dropping those 8 or so pounds without losing muscle?

Re: Workout/Staying in Shape Thread
Thanks Oxitron for the laugh. Dam Glass Shatters got banned.
Did a full weight lifting workout in 2 weeks, haven't lost any strength at all.

Other wise, door me it's like rush said; if you have enough tune to hit the gym 3, 4 + days a week, isolation is better. And of choose if you're looking to focus more on cardio, you might hit the gym less if you're running more; in that case fewer days would lead you to do full body workouts, out look in to trying circuits.
You know loves circuits? Daniel Craig. You know who loves Daniel Craig?

This is interesting. I'll give it a try at the end of the month.

If you don't want to lose muscle while you cut, keep lifting. Just consume less calories while still making sure you get the proper amount of protein, carbs, etc.

Re: Workout/Staying in Shape Thread
No one will lost 0% muscle during a cut, provided steroid free. Just minimize the amount of muscle loss with thte advice given.

So you're saying I should take steroids?

Re: Workout/Staying in Shape Thread
No, what he's saying is that you're going to lose some muscle mass on a cut. Depending on how quick the cut will depend on how much you lose. No one goes on a cut and keeps the same amount of muscle mass. What you do get from a cut (done properly) is a lower BF%, and a proportionally higher amount of muscle mass.
