 Let's talk about training strategies. Everybody has this backwards. Here's what people do when they're trying to cut. They ramp up volume, ramp up intensity, ramp up workouts. I'm trying to burn more calories. The opposite is true. If I'm in a cut, my body can handle less stress, less volume. I can over train much easier. I don't want to try to beat myself up to burn those calories. I want to try and keep my body from over training. When I'm bulking, now I can handle the harder workouts. I could push the weights. I could push the intensity because they have the extra calories and the extra nutrients. Everybody does the opposite. The idea of high intensity burning tons of calories. Well, it might aid in you losing weight, but it's also potentially going to aid in you losing muscle to your point because you're not feeding the body proper nutrition. Anybody who's ever gone a consistent cut or bulk will tell you you don't recover as fast in a cut. It's harder to push myself. And if you push it too hard, then you start to push your body into over training where it's going to want to hold on to body fat. In a bulk, you get away with the volume. You can train harder in a bulk and that's why you're stronger. And also we primarily use lifting weights to send a signal to build muscle. One it's most likely going to isn't a calorie surplus in a deficit. That's not going to happen.
