200 lb. guy
3,000 calorie metabolism rate
20%bf equals about 40 lbs. of fat. Which equals 140,000 fat calories. I read somewhere that 1 lb. of muscle only needs approimately 50 calories to maintain. I don't know if this is for sure though....
Then why is it so hard for people to gain muscle while losing fat?? Can't the muscle your building use fat as a fuel source? I'm thinkin with your 3,000 calorie maintance diet everyday with your 140,000 cals in reserve, isn't that enough to gain muscle.
I have a feeling I'm missing something....please add to...
