[@slydog7131]

All great advice. A couple of points I will add: 1) Multiple studies indeed show that the larger the calorie deficit, the more muscle that is lost. The crossover point is about a 400-calorie deficit where muscle loss typically occurs. Below that level, muscle gains are often still possible. 2) It is still possible to gain strength even during weight reduction. Much actual strength is due to the neuro-muscular connections and not muscle size. So even though muscle mass might decline, muscle strength can and should increase. Lifting heavy to failure or near failure with low reps (1 to 6) is key. 3) A research study showed that in a calorie-deficit diet, consuming calories at maintenance level two day a week eliminates the decreased cellular metabolic activity normally seen with calorie reduction and also eliminates muscle loss. So if the goal is to reduce calories by 500 per day or 3500 per week, reducing calories by 700 per day for 5 days and consuming at 0 deficit for 2 days will lead to as much fat loss without the negative effects. My personal experience with a successful weight-loss diet is to use a calorie counter to plan out meals the day before, and then use a food scale to accurately measure portions to strictly adhere to the plan. Furthermore, adjusting calories for activity levels is a bad idea. Don't think that because you go for a 5-mile run that you can eat extra calories. That has never worked for me.

[@AZ-gs6hj]

Was just thinking about this… Been lifting for 7-8 years and realized that the more advanced you get the less ability to put on muscle. So that regular 10-12 lb bulk no longer builds the same amount of muscle as it did when you first started lifting. Then every time you cut, you have built hardly any muscle and end up actually cutting into the muscle you had before the bulk. It’s definitely an issue when you’re natural and advanced.

[@JoeDelaneyy]

For sure, the closer to your natural limit you get the harder it is to build it. That would be fine, because the time is going to pass anyway, but it's also much harder to keep it if you through any periods of inconsistency (or even just being slightly off the ball). Ultimately that means you do reach a stage where it's just not worth it to try and build then maintain more muscle mass. Especially because most people's aesthetic ideal comes a fair bit before their natty limit anyway.

[@bennyjetsaroundtheworld9047]

So say somebody's 40% bmi or higher, should they still run a caloric deficit if they're de-trained and wanting to do re-comp? Or should they just build as much muscle as possible the first 6 months then cut hard?

[@julian-fricker]

Thanks for the great video. I'm rapidly approaching 50 and needed some major weight loss after a hernia and surgery to fix it last year. I love running but have always used it alone and ended up looking like shit after hitting a weight target. This time I used a combo of 16:8 intermittent fasting along with running/walking/lifting and feel like I'm moving towards the best shape I've ever been in. Still a long way to go, about 25% body fat right now but I've shifted 12kg in 14 weeks so close to the 1% of body weight a week to retain muscle. The one other thing I did different this time was had a friendly bet with a mate about who could lose the most weight. Self help books call this an accountability partner and it works, could be as simple as telling your mum how much weight you lose every week. But knowing you have to tell someone you put on weight because you ate mcdonalds every day helps you to not eat mcdonalds every day.

[@jaysess3806]

Several hernias and surgery over here, makes it a lot harder to do workout. In fact I now capitulated with lifting weights and solely focus on intermittant fasting (16/8 or 40 hours) and martial arts and related strength training. I loved to have muscles but functional strength, punching power and speed is all I can achieve now.

Great pointers. I'd like to add a few more points. When on a calorie deficit, muscles have a higher chance of undergoing gluconeogenesis, in which muscle protein is synthesized into glucose to compensate for the glycogen deficit. Cortisol plays a major role in this. To counter this, it's advised to take a 500mg Vitamin C tab half an hour before workout and consume EAAs after workout to kind of "cushion" your muscles from getting degenerated.

well done for saying just weigh yourself regularly and adjust as necessary. I weigh myself every day, regardless of whether I'm on a bulk or cut and it takes all the guess work out of it. If you don't weigh yourself often enough then daily swings (which can be very large) make a nonsense of interpreting the results, but if you do it daily you can create a trendline and see what's really happening over time.

Agree with 90% of this. Though my experience has been that high intensity low impact cardio like swimming utilizing butterfly stroke, which burns roughly 500 calories in 30 min, does wonders for achieving the deficit. Imo it’s the best way to shed fat while leaving muscle intact. You feel better and reap the benefits of gene expression the more you can eat, period. Low calories=low energy.

I really hope more kids are influenced by people like Joe because he looks incredible Naturally, as opposed to listening to clearly enhanced bodybuilders, or fake natural bodybuilders who take unnecessary risks by using PED's, roll the dice with their health when they are relatively young, which when they are older have a high chance there will be an adverse impact on their health. He hasn't sold out, he hasn't jumped on performance enhancing drugs, or gone down the fake natural route (as so many of the influencers have with twice as many followers ) to get more subscribers What Joe has shown is you can look incredible, be healthy and be natural Which is why in my opinion, he is one of the best bodybuilders on the Internet

As I kind of alluded to in the beginning, some of it is just that you feel/look smaller because a) you don't have a layer of fat and b) your muscles can seem 'deflated' when not full of glycogen and water (like they are when you're eating high carbs). Without getting DEXA scans you can't really know for absolute sure if or how much muscle you lost, so you just have to do everything in your power not to and hope for the best (i.e. everything I went through in the video).
