The conversation between human and AI assistant.
Can you lose fat and build muscle at the same time?
Can you explain those different approaches?
Sure, losing fat typically requires a calorie deficit, meaning you need to burn more calories than you consume. Building muscle, on the other hand, requires a calorie surplus, meaning you need to consume more calories than you burn in order to have the energy required to build new muscle tissue. So it's a bit of a balancing act to do both at the same time.
