Hello to all the Sifu bodybuilders, I have few questions in mind, help me out please smile.gif

Ok firstly, I workout 6 days a week, have lost total of 10kg + over 4months, now I am trying to build muscle.

I just measure my body percentage, from 23% to 18.1%, so I am still trying to reduce further by doing HIIT before weight lifting.
I heard tht by doing cardio, there are chances of burning muscle. How true isit?

Most of my friends said my body really transform alot, but i am not happy at all because I feel my chest muscle is hardly growing, so is it because of the cardio or not enough protein intake?
I have 6-7 meals a day.

Brkfast- 3eggs white
2nd breakfast- 3scoop oats + 1scoop protein

snack ( around 10am)- Handful of raisin with 1 green apple

Lunch- Basically i will eat alot broccoli here with either chicken/ beef or fish

snack 2- Red kidney bean + 1 green apple

preworkout- Plain brown rice (50g if not mistaken)

Postworkout- 2 scoop protein shake

Before bedtime- Any type of fruits
*
it is not protein problem,
u not eating enough calories, mate.
u cant gain muscles and loss fat in sametimes.
to gain muscles, u need to eat calories surplus, to loss fat u need calories deficit.
well, do u read the 1st page of this section till end of this page? there alot information and experience u may get from there.
u need add ur calories intake and watch ur macro too if u wan to gain muscles.

Thanks for the info

I am confuse on the calories surplus, isnt more calories intake turn to fat?
*
ya it will if u took excessive calories intake. by gain muscles, u may gain fat too. tat why most BBer trying gain muscles but keep fat gain on minimum. they also keep cycle cutting and bulking phase. u can add ur calories by 500kcal 1st and see. different ppl different reaction, if u see no grow, mean u need extra more, if u see u gain fat faster then u may reduce ur calories let said 300kcal.

it is about trial and error, it take time but it is a fun progress. u may find wat ur body respond to.u can maintained ur daily calories intake and grow muscles too, but it might slow.

the info was obtained through the report from the body assessment machine in the gym, it's a "4-point" where you stood on top of 2 steel plates barefooted and held on to 2 grips. not sure how accurate it was but i used it as one of the guide as to how it affects my pattern of workout.

you should read this

It is better to forget aboout body fat percentage

not sure its right place to ask this...
do i overtrain or something? or am i thinking too much?

yesterday i trained my back alot...8reps,8weightplate(add 2 more from previous)(10kg/10LBS increase),since they are some stupid guy keep rushing us for the machine,resting time was about 40sec...arm and bicep exercises,deadlift almost 50-60kg for 6 reps(10-15kg previous weight)(pretty hardcore for me),7-8 exercises in total...

and when i go to sleep,everything was fine,until i dream that i was drinking too much liquor(i know it's weird),and i woke up and vomit instantly(luckily there was a dustbin beside my bed),after finish throw up,drank some water and continue to sleep afterward,and today i felt like shit sad.gif no appetite to eat,but i still able to force myself to eat some bread...

so what you guys think from your experience? food poison or overtrain?
i ate 2 healthy meal at home,1 at the outside(nasi goreng pataya+1 kerang bakar only),not sure i allegic to kerang or not,cuz i never ate kerang for a very long time...and no,i do not consume any alcohol in a week...

Overtraining is overrated.

Most likely is food poisoning.
