I have put on muscle weight all over. My glutes,arms, shoulders & legs are bigger. The problem is I want to cut back my size decreasing my measurements as my clothes no longer fit. Do I cut back on the workouts or reduce calorie intake? I average 18 workouts per week.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('6212','Tyler'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('6212','Tyler','Hey Vince,\nI have been mixing my workouts between Craig Ballantyne\'s Turbulence Training, Jerry Hill\'sCrossfit, BJ Gaddour\'s Workout Muse & yours.

I'm and old goat (79) and due to 3 major surgeries over the last nine years, I've gained weight that I would like to lose. One surgery involved putting pig skin reinforcement over my abdominal muscles (did you know that if you get peritonitis that there is almost a guarantee that you will have an abdominal hernia?), so I know that I will never have a 'six pack'. That does not bother me one iota. I would just like to lose weight and slim down. Of course recovery and inactivity contributed to this condition. The fact that I'm a type II diabetic doesn't help. I live alone and obviously do not want to fool around with free weights. I have a Bowflex that I am trying to get set up - room is a problem. The doctor warned me against doing situps and I think the adjustability of the Bowflex will let me start out with very light resistance and then very gradually increase it. I would appreciate any comments/ideas/experiences that you could relate. Very sincerely, Will<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('6210','Will'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('6210','Will','Hi, Vince -\n My first comment !!!

This simply means opening the chest up and keeping them that way through the entire range of motion to get a better squeeze in the pecs, particularly in the middle. There is an old saying, "If you chase two rabbits, they'll both escape" and you are 100% correct when it comes to the build muscle/lose bodyfat scenario. Sure it's possible, but not by many and hard to replicate on an individual basis. A good method is to ensure you are around 200-300 calories above your maintenance level so that there is less chance of the body storing excess as bodyfat/unused energy. Plenty of trial and error is required here. Don't be overwhelmed by the relentless waves of "new" information that comes out on better ways to uptake energy post workout. Not much has changed in this area apart from sales and marketing tactics getting sharper than ever. Also, put this into perspective in terms of how much difference is it going to make for the general "natural" bodybuilder or general fitness person doing weight at the gym? Vince's advice here is on the money so don't get stressed out by others claiming their "new" method is superior; chance are, it's anything but.

People need to dial in both their workout AND nutrition that support their goals - building muscles or lose weight. Like I say and each my clients all the times, "Everything works, but nothing works forever." and "Not everything works for everyone." With that being said, people need to find the lifestyle and regiment that work for them and see results. THAT's the best.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('6165','C. Carey Yang'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('6165','C.

I'm right handed and my left pec is a lot smaller than my right... I also tried looking around in the net for solutions and some forums commented that I should lift at a 3:1 ratio of weights on my left and right pecs. Some also said to train the left pec only... I need to be having a photoshoot on August and I have only 3 months left to correct my pecs, would you have some kind of solution for me? Looking forward to your valuable reply.
