Calories

[Bear]

Cathe, I lift weights 4 days a week to back shoulders bicep & chest tricep & superset & leg glutes as well as Imax2 & step blast. Now, I am currently on a 1400 calorie diet with 20%fat 35% carb 45% protein. My goal is build muscle. I am 30 yrs old, I weight 119 with body fat of 24%. I have been working out for yrs but recently I lost 5lbs but have not yet lost any fat. What should I do? should i increase my calories or not work out as much?

Thank you.

Hi Bear! How long have you been on this current fitness plan? Maybe you need to change it up some. I suggest adding one more cardio per week and also switching over to the slow and heavy series for three weeks. After 3 weeks on slow heavy, keep 3 days of varied cardio and switch to gym style workouts for weight work for the next 4 weeks. Eat clean! Good Luck! Cathe

I just started the hardcore this week but i was doing a lot more cardio in the months before. Do you think my calorie intake is to low for building muscle. I eat clean every day.

Thanks again
