I've read that at higher body fat percentages such as mine, the body is wired to keep putting the lion's share of the extra calories towards fat storage, rather than muscle, no matter how heavy you lift or how much cardio you do..
So I want to get to a point where I'm wired for more muscle, less fat, so I just don't end up where I was before (230, but at 22% bf).. |
Oops! Missed the sarcasm. Punctuation is overrated.
Regarding your goals; I know that this is your goal You and I are in the same boat. Thats why I've stopped by and checked your log out. We're shooting for the same goal. And it sounds like we're reading the same books as well! Although I'm more worried about strength than size as an ultimate goal.
If you think that 230 at 23% is bad.....I started at 245lbs. at about 26-28% Body Fat! And I'm much shorter than you! It's taking me alot longer to reach my goal of 12% (or 165lbs whichever comes first).
Do you have a program in....nevermind I'll ask this in your log where its more appropriate.
