[QUOTE="outsideshot23, post: 7228417, member: 616457"] i cant even stress how bad this is. First of all you cant "crash diet" and strength train. they are opposittes. unless you are 300+ pounds it is unsafe to lose more then 2-3 pounds per week. anything over that and every pound you cut is about 70% muscle you are losing. If you dont eat right then jump on a treadmill your body will use your muscle for fuel. If you want to lose fat you need to do light intensity training. Keeping your heart rate around 60% of max for 30-50 minutes. Another thing, doing cardio before strength training is completely unproductive. Cardio burns lots of cals and take alot out of you body. YOu cannot lift worth a **** if you just done cardio. Cardio is always done after your workout. if you ate tons during the day and you need to burn some cals so they dont turn to fat do high intensity after working out. Ipersonally just eat alot of protein and small amount of carbs for energy before i hit the gym so i pretty much burn all of my cals up during my lift so when i get done i do low intensity so i will just burn fat. If you are comfortable losing alot of muscle by all means crash diet. but there is no amount of strength training that can keep you from losing muscle if you want to losethat much weight that fast. You will feel worthless and lethargic in the gym. just saying. this is what i do for a living [/QUOTE]
