Is it possible to gain muscle while losing weight?
Even though you’re watching what you eat, hitting the gym or lifting weights, sometimes your physique or the number on the scale doesn’t match what you were going for. When it comes to weight loss and muscle gain, it takes a lot of discipline, which can be difficult. But it is possible to have the best of both worlds. Learn more about the differences between fat loss and muscle gain, as well as tips for shedding pounds while building muscle.
