Two things:
1. I think it's more than academic for people who need to lose pounds to make sure they are hanging on to as much LBM as possible. We want to keep as much muscle and bone mass as possible to continue to support our bodies as we shed fat.
2. I can only speak from personal experience, which is that I personally can lose fat while gaining LBM. For me, it requires great care with my diet and hard work in the gym as well as my other workouts.
Good luck!
