Now , I know that muscle weights more than fat but when is the process am I supposed to be loosing weight, this is really frustrating and i dont want to give up but i dont see any pay off for my hard work. what should i do , or am I doing anything wrong?
Answers:
Muscle weighs more than fat, gaining weight is good. Just because you're gaining weight doesnt mean you arent losing fat. You're doing just fine.
When I was lifting weights on a regular basis, I gained 13 lbs of just muscle in 2-3 months.
