Can You Lose Fat And Build Muscle At The Same Time ?

“This is very difficult. It can be done in some unique circumstances, but for
the most part it isn't possible.
For example, novice lifters can sometimes gain muscle and lose fat at the
same time. Also, people returning from long layoffs can sometimes add
muscle and lose fat at the same time. However, experienced lifters who are
working out consistently can't do both at the same time. If you want to do
both, you should choose one goal (either fat loss or muscle gain) and work
towards that goal for a few months. After some success towards that goal,
you should then change over and try to accomplish the other for a few
months. Be single-minded in your focus towards that goal. When trying to
lose fat, you should be unconcerned if you lose a little muscle as well.
Likewise, if you're trying to add muscle, you should allow the addition of a
small amount of fat. “ – misc.fitness.weight FAQ
Please understand that while it’s not impossible it’s just not efficient. You
might as well pick a goal and work towards it. Losing fat and building
muscle are two different goals with very different paths to get there.
