I'm running out of money for buying Protein shakes and Protein-dense foods so I probably won't be building muscle efficiently anymore since I'll be skipping out on a few meals every now and then with so little nutrients to support muscle growth but I still have my Gym membership for 1 month and I'm planning to make the most out of my workouts. I've always wanted to see how I'd look ripped and go from 20% to about 10% bodyfat so I figured why not do that right now since I've never had the time to do cardio/HIIT while I was weight-gaining because that would be counterproductive and also, fewer meals would mean I'll be on a caloric deficit most of the time. I'm hoping I could get some help/advice on how to do this properly so that I can avoid going catabolic and lose some of the muscles that I have left. What I plan to do this month is workout like always, same intensity and volume but I don't know if I should also have a caloric deficit to maximize the fat-loss process. I'm not doing cardio because I'm planning to preserve my muscles so weight-lifting would be a better option since I'll be burning calories anyway, I'm just not sure how much. So I've come to this conclusion, If I workout while having a caloric deficit, I'll be burning double the amount of calories. i.e.: Let's say I have a 2,200 calorie maintenance, I'll burn about 200-400 (just a guess) calories in the gym plus a 500-calorie deficit, I would have burned about 900 calories in total (?). Please excuse my explanation, I have little understanding about calories and how fat-burning works. Would this be a great idea?
