Tip: when measuring fat loss (or muscle gain) over time, weigh yourself first thing in the morning, before you eat or drink anything. measure your weight 2-3 times per week and record all results. this will give you a clear and consistent record of your progress.. Maybe that�s why gaining muscle is at least four times as difficult as losing fat (and infinity times harder than gaining fat ;). you�d think all it takes is lifting a few weights and eating a bunch of food. and that�s a start, but unfortunately the way most people approach muscle gain is really just a recipe for mass gain.. If cortisol goes up and stays up, you�ll lose lean mass (to provide amino acids to convert into glucose) and retain/gain body fat. in most people, consistent low carb will help you lose weight, but the glucose demanded by crossfit will trigger muscle loss and fat gain if the demand goes unmet..
