My recent schedule has looked something like this: work out six days a week, including semi-regular stretching; eat mostly good foods, but also tons of unhealthy stuff; sleep fine. I’ve dropped a pants size and seen a little bit more muscle definition, but haven’t so much as lost a single pound.
I tested my body fat % with one of those handheld bioelectrical-impedence things, and the numbers were the same as before I started working out so much. (Yes, I’m aware of the high error margins)
I’m not expecting to lose weight on my current eating schedule (it’s something I have to work on), and I understand that working out a lot and eating a lot of calories is a common way for guys to gain muscle mass, but how did I drop a pants size?
I guess I should be glad, but I’m still a little mystified.
