Wondering what y’all’s thoughts are on strength training when in calorie deficit?
For diet, I’ve currently got a target deficit of a little under a pound a week, and I add any exercise (based on Apple Watch estimate) back into my calorie budget.
For strength, I’ve been doing bodyweight stuff for about an hour 3-4 times a week and taking whey protein afterwards, but still targeting a calorie deficit on those days.
Weight loss is definitely the bigger goal for me right now. I figured any muscle / strength gained in the mean time is a plus. That said, I’m wondering if those things are at cross purposes of each other? Should I adjust either one for a better effort of losing weight over time? My goal weight is about 6 months out at my current rate of loss.
Interested to hear y’all’s thoughts. Thanks!
