this thread had this quote in the OP...
"Here is a routine from Mark Rippetoe’s book called “Starting Strength”. You can buy the book at
www.startingstrength.com. It includes endless useful info that all beginners should learn. But as for the program he suggests, his clients that he gives it to on AVERAGE
gain 30-40 pounds in about 6 months or so which is amazing gains."
That part made me look twice as I'm still 215lbs with a goal of 160-170. I'm assuming he's referring to people who are eating tons in order to get big?
Correct me if my logic is off: People who have a big caloric surplus get huge, but I could technically maintain a 500 caloric deficit and continue to lose weight/body fat while helping to maintain lbm and make strength gains at the same time. Am I right?
