I assume requires some sort of black magic?
I'm late forties and decided I needed to lose some weight but wouldn't mind building up my frame a bit. So I'm doing IF on the 18/6 ratio Mon to Fri and I'm down to 175lbs. However I'm probably only eating around 1600 / 1700 cals which according to some YouTube experts won't help me build muscle as all that is spent just breathing. Worried to eat lots more as it seems counter productive. Drinking only st weekends now, have started eating fecking quark now man.
I'm gyming 3 times a week, say 10 reps of 5 sets near my max but not seeing any benefit. I don't get sore and don't get a sweat on, my muscles just hit a hard block and won't push. Started putting in some cardio but again don't know if that is counter productive...
Or is the fact I'm old mean that's my lot
Don't get a sweat on either lifting weights which I reckon doesn't help.
