Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I really build muscle and lose fat at the same time?
- Yes, especially if you're a beginner, returning after a break, or carrying significant body fat. It's slower than dedicated bulking or cutting, but research shows it's possible with adequate protein (2.0-2.4g/kg), calorie cycling, and progressive resistance training.
- How long does body recomposition take?
- Expect visible changes in 8-12 weeks with consistent training and nutrition. The scale may not change much since you're gaining muscle while losing fat. Track progress with measurements, photos, and strength gains rather than just weight.
