Reply With Quoteweight training burns more calories over a 24 hour period than the equivalant cardio session does. cardio does not have the same positive effect on the endocrine system that resistance training does.

My plan.
Ok, i cant seem to balance losing weight and weightlifting out together. So im gonna concentrate on losing body fat first. I actually manage to lose five pounds but its too hard with school and all to incorporate weight training. But i have a question that concerns me. If i do this, and abandon weightlifting will i lose a lot of my current Lean body mass? And if so, will weightlifting about once or twice a week allow me to maintain the muscle mass?

you need to post your diet in the other forum. if you are playing soccer several times a week in addition to weight training you are getting enough exercise to lose fat. the problem lies in your diet

I agree with Mr. Lam here. I would think if you took in clean calories somewher between 2700-3000 you should be able to lose fat and retain most of your LBM if you continue to lift.

You really shouldn't give up lifting in my opinion. Your body is much more likely to retain your muscle mass while you cut if you're lifting. It gives your body a "reason" to hold onto the muscle.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
