Loss of muscle (atrophy) and loss of strength are different things.

I would argue with you there..
You cannot
help but gain muscle when progressively increasing your strength by lifting heavier and heavier weights, wouldn't you agree?
And if you lose muscle, you cannot help but lose strength..
But I see what you mean..
You're saying can lose strength by switching to an endurance routine without necessarily losing muscle, and in fact the muscles would be expected to
grow IF I was eating at maintenence or above, which I'm not..
In any case, as I said, I'm not concerned with loss of
strength..
I'm concerned with loss of
muscle..
Which, as I said, was a concern of the vast majority of those I polled on the subject earlier, when I said I was cutting (a 500 cal deficit)..
If your saying otherwise, you'd be in the minority (not that they couldn't all be wrong LOL).
Hope that clears up my position a bit..
