Losing fat while gaining muscle via body recomposition│Dr. Brad Schoenfeld

  • Body recomposition, or "recomp," involves improving body composition by simultaneously decreasing fat and increasing muscle mass. Dr. Schoenfeld asserts that resistance training alone is a poor strategy for losing weight and is most valuable when used as an adjunct to calorie reduction. If a person reduces their caloric intake to lose weight, as much as 30 percent of their weight loss may come from muscle - unless they engage in resistance training. In this clip, Dr. Brad Schoenfeld describes the importance of resistance training and adequate protein intake to prevent losing muscle mass during weight loss.

    I was overweight. Over 9 months I had a small calorie deficit, ate a lot of protein and did lots of resistance training. I lost a lot of fat and a little bit of muscle. Then I started lean bulking, small daily surplus, lots of resistance training and lots of protein. The key for me is to also do lots of low intensity steady state cardio and I’m slowly putting on muscle without any noticeable fat. I appreciate not everyone has the time or motivation to do this but for me it’s become a way of life.

    • @Magnulus76
      @Magnulus76 5 месяцев назад +6

      Low intensity cardio is good because it burns mostly fat, so it's unlikely to interfere with muscle gain.

    Thank you. I lost too much fat at the outset of the first month and was on top of my protein (90+ g whey isolate protein & broad spectrum collagen protein + dietary/animal protein). I realize weight/resistance training is essential and I struggle to be consistent with it. I now feel I've started to lose some muscle. I have a long way to go. Back on track and gaining tools for the perfect workout conditions.

      You don't need to supplement collagen, you body makes it, If you eat it you just digests it and then it rebuilds it from scratch. Eat REAL food . . . and supplement only when you are not able to eat a proper meal. I'm 70 and cannot eat as much as I use to and I train at 5AM and dont tolerate a full stomach while running so I only supplement with whey protein at 5am about 30g so I only have to get 60g from meat.

    Body re-comp can be accomplished! 💯
    Keys:
    1 - proper diet
    2 - daily workout routine. Each resistance training focuses on lower body, abs, and upper body, although the specific exercises are varied each day rotating every 3 days.
    Workouts conclude with a 20-minute weighted jump rope routine that combines resistance and aerobic training. Different weighted ropes add varying degrees of difficulty, but produce amazing results. 💯🎯

    What I don’t understand is, if I’m 20% body fat and I eat 200g of protein but have an overall calorie deficit, can’t my body build muscle using the protein and use my body fat for energy. Thereby getting more muscular yet leaner.

    • @KappaClaus
      @KappaClaus 8 месяцев назад +3

      No, because your body prioritizes other functions of your body before muscle building. Any strength gain would be purely muscle efficiency and neuron recruitment. But it signals to the body you should not decrease lean muscle, which is very important. If you are a complete and utter beginner you might see a little muscle development, but eating maintenance/over maintenance is the most important.

That’s if I multiple 185 by 2.6 as suggested in the video. I can barely eat 300g a day! Or is it my lean body mass in kg which would be 218g of protein if I multiply 84kg by 2.6.

    If you lower your calories you will lose muscle if you are lifting weights. Best to keep calories and high protein meals steady and lift weights 3 days per week combined with walking 10,000 steps daily. That way you will build some muscle and look slimmer. I see people in the gym working out on the treadmill and lifting weights like beasts, however,they are starving their bodies by eating 1500 calories per day and not making gains. So, lift weights-walk 10,000 steps-and throw away the scale. Use the mirror because you will see the improvement over time. Allow yourself 1 year and you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.

    • @iampanda8804

      I agree with most of what you're saying - especially discarding the scale because that can be very misleading. Mirror and old clothes/new clothes - waist sizes, fitted shirts are great metrics.
      If you lower your calories but have high protein meals, you can maintain/reduce muscle mass loss. 10K steps can sound rather intimidating, I say go for a brisk walk after consuming any meal, or add morning/evening walks into your day. As you begin to enjoy it and do it more often, it will be way more than 10k steps.
      None the less, agree with that comment!

      And beginners can gain muscle while losing fat in general.
