I have a personal trainer and have been working with him for over a year. I compete in golf competitions and am looking to cut my 30% body fat in half as well as gain muscle and an awesome physique/abs!!
I have not really seen a big difference in my body as I am still hovering between 27-30% body fat ugh. But I do see a difference in strength.
I purchased some Var at the end of October and saw my lowest body fat percentage of 27% and my strength was going well! But then work interfered and I had to take some time off here and there from my 3 day a week training sessions for an hour each of the three days. I also went off var.
I am now back on Var (three days in) and would like to add cardio on my three scheduled hour long lifting days as well as on my days off in order to get my body fat down.
I have dabbled with the high fat low to no carb and medium diet, the egg fast, the eat clean but under your TDEE diets but am really confused with what would work for me - as the users of the eat clean diets and the Atkins type of diets all state that I should be eating around 1600 cals (I'm 44 yrs of age, 5'3" tall and 130lbs) but they all require more lifting / working out than what I am doing.
I understand Var helps retain and build muscle so believe I can eat below my TDEE (1000 cals) and lose weight while not losing muscle given my lack of workouts.
I would love to workout more but just can't right now given my job but if that is going to be the only way I can get to 15% body fat I will! But I also read that 90% of body fat loss is made in the kitchen.
Just wondering if Var can give me that extra edge and allow me to lower my cals further and if I should also consider Clen and Eq??
