if you’re at a caloric deficit, you’re not going to gain muscle mass. best you can hope for is to maintain as much as possible.

You are still new to lifting, chances are you can still build muscle and loose fat at the same time. Beginner athletes tend to go through body re-composition for about a year. Advance athletes, their body’s have become accustomed to the training and whether their bodies are in a catabolic or anabolic state, depends heavily on their caloric intake.

31 M 5 foot 8 200 lbs. muscular build. I want to get to 180 and know strength will take a hit. Has anyone experienced weight loss while maintaining muscle mass? Lifting 4-6 times a week for 45 mins. Cardio 1-2 times and that’s like a 15-20 min walk at most. Diet 75% vegan. How can I drop this weight? I’m fine to eat like a dog and have the same meals every day I just need someone to tell me what to eat and when.

My psychiatrist today revealed to me that I may have ADHD, still a hypothesis that he is still exploring but from my personal experiences and discussions with therapist, it seems likely.

One example of personal experience is my ongoing prep for case studies as I'm interviewing with a number of firms. I do struggle to keep focus and generally take a bit longer to finish them, specifically the structuring of the case. Does anybody else feel the same way and any recommendations to overcome this?
