Getting Cut

riot Posts: 23 Joined: 2004/01/05	2004/01/06, 11:19 AM Im already about 210 from training for about 3 years. I put myself not so much on a diet but on a cut down of intake. Do you think this will take away from my size? When i stop training i drop weight fast but thats from losing muscle will not eating as much change my weight?

If you are correctly adding lean mass, you will either stay the same or gain weight...but you will look a lot more defined. Hope this answers your question... -------------- **_Robert_** Pain is temporary; glory is forever!

So, as you lose the fat and by gaining lean muscle mass, you may not necessarily notice your weight going down. -------------- **_Robert_** Pain is temporary; glory is forever!
