Hello /fit/,For the past five months, I have been working on 'bulking.' I put on about 20 pounds and gained an inch on my biceps. About two days ago, I decided to switch over to fat-loss (chasing that ever elusive six-pack). I have cut my calorie intake and started regular cardio.I need advice about eating though. I am aiming for around 1500 calories per day now, but I was wondering, on the days that I lift weights, should I eat more? I want to prevent as much muscle loss as I can. I don't know if the body is dynamic enough to use the extra calories on lifting days towards muscle repair and maintainance without it having a negative impact on my fat loss efforts.So: Stick with 1500 cals. per day, regardless of activity, or up it to, say, 2000 calories on lifting days, try to get extra protein in?
If only someone would make a book about burning fat and keeping muscle. And if they made it it'd be pretty awesome if it got mentioned multiple times a day here. Too bad that'll never happen.Go look for Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle.
I am not looking for book recommendations, ass-hat. I am looking for some quick advice from a group I assume knows it off the top of their heads.

>>183804Whats the difference? Us spoon feeding it to you vs. you putting a little bit of effort into and learning something. Which one sounds better in the long run. Its a good book dipshit and it is widely recommended for a reason.
>>183804Don't be lazy, OP. Read a motherfucking book. Clearly you don't want this bad enough.
FUCK YEA VENUTO
