    Your body fat percentage will drop if you gain muscle tissue at a greater rate than you gain body fat.

    Whether or not this will be significant enough a shift to satisfy your expectation is another matter

    If you’re comfortable to, uploading some pictures may be valuable for the group to help advise next steps

    The gang have covered it well

    Only thing I would say is that I would prefer a slight kcal surplus over rest day maintenance kcals

    Haha
    I’m already in the gym at 4:30am because of work. I do 12hour shifts and my commute to work can be anywhere between 3-3 and half hours all together.[/quote]

    Another shambolic push session, shoulder is being a massive inconvenience at the moment

    Can’t do much more than rest it and hope it’s better next time out

    It appears to be completely random as to whether it cooperates or not!

    February 18, 2020 at 9:51 pm in reply to: Least amount of sets per muscle per session?

    It depends on a number of factors

    How far do you take a set? Do you really honestly eek every last bit out of it?

    How strong are you? Yes, that does matter.

    How proficient are you at stimulating the target tissue?

    Not necessarily questions you will be able to answer with certainty
