Episode 310: Is it possible to slowly lose body fat% and gain muscle mass while consuming calories around maintenance?

Fitness For Freedom Tips

I want to lose fat and gain muscle, but I don’t want to put on any more weight, is it possible to slowly lose body fat % and gain muscle mass while consuming calories around maintenance? How much slower would this be than a bulk and then cut cycle?

Is it better to do strength training before cardio or is it better to do cardio and then strength training?

What’s better, doing a strength program that is 3 times a week vs. 6 times a week? I heard that really all you need is 3 and more than that is really a waste of time.

For some context, let's assume that a theoretical person, right after cutting to 10% bodyfat, goes on a bulk for a year. He has perfect execution and progression on all lifts and never misses a day.

What will the actual difference be after that year when going on a 3-day routine vs. a 6-day routine?

I know you won't be able to lift twice as much, or have twice the muscle. But how much more will the 6-day one actually give you regarding strength and aesthetics.
