Here is a question? Hopefully i will get several peoples answers! I am a little overweight i feel. Have a gut and fat around the chest but at the same time muscular. If i am trying to build muscle and i know carbs are neccessary to help muscle growth, can the fat on my body be used for energy instead of eating more carbs? Or should i lower the carb intake? I confused cause i know muscles dont grow on protein alone the need that spike from carbs? Bbottom line could i lose some weight by cutting the carbs alot and use bodyfat ?

I would write down what i eat everyday,then adjust your carb intake as time goes on! all i ever needed was to look in the mirror,im not about to step on stage,not sure you are either,ive said this a 1000 times,you are your best judge! also you didnt explain your goals so if you want to lose weight,jus burn more cals than you consume!..IMO nothing wrong with carring around a few extra pounds during the winter months!..prolly wont but hope this helps!!..stay healthy bro!

I can see what your saying. well.i just trying to lose some bodyfat while gaining muscle. like i said i know carbs are also needed to gain musle. Carbs are needed for energy and protein synthesis. So i guess i can cut back on the carbs and stay withe the protein. i just dont wanna risk my body losing out on musle gains
