But I have a couple questions..
The first one is for my fat friend. He's been trying to lose weight and consulting me all the while. He started maybe a month or so ago at 280. He's been doing mostly cardio but says he lifts weights occasionally. I told him he shouldn't even bother with weight lifting at this point because he's not going to build a whole lot of muscle while only taking in around 1000 calories a day. Plus muscle weighs more than fat and I figured he may get discouraged if he actually were able to cut down on fat but gain muscle in its place and have the scale show a number he'd be disappointed in.
I said, if I were him, I wouldn't even lift a weight until I hit around 220. Do you disagree? Should he lift some while trying to lose a massive amount of weight?
