How to Lose the Most Fat and Build the Most Muscle in 30 Days

A lot can happen in 30 days.

The dream of everyone who trains is to lose maximum fat and build maximum muscle in the shortest period of time possible. While it is definitely possible to both lose fat and gain muscle at the same time, in my experience, the best results come from concentrating on one major goal at a time.

Let me put it this way: to lose fat, you need a caloric deficit. To build muscle, you need a caloric surplus. If you try to do both at the same time, you may just remain exactly where you are!

So the question before us is - how do we maximize both fat loss and muscle gain, two very much opposing goals, in only 30 days?

It Takes a Combination to Get Healthy

Nutrition and physical activity go together like bread and
butter for our bodies. Exercise is going to give us fitness
along with four other major things: flexibility, strength, muscle
endurance, and cardiovascular health.

Dieting alone is not going to be able to give you all of these
health benefits. You need to have the physical part as well.

One thing that you should always remember is that a bad
diet can affect the way that your fitness training goes even
if you follow the best type of exercise plan that you can.
You need to put a healthy diet and a lot of exercise together
to stay as healthy as you can!

How long you need to exercise to keep as healthy as you can
is a question that many people ask.

The average person needs at least 20 minutes of exercise
three times a week. I know it doesn't sound like much, but this
will help to strengthen your cardiovascular health and your
overall fitness. Another good idea to keep in mind is that
you should burn 3500 calories in a week by doing any sort of
physical activity.
