Training for Maximum Fat Loss While Retaining Muscle
This is the first phase of a classic pre‑contest routine — but it works for any man who wants to get leaner, harder, and more muscular.
Your progress markers:
- Increase reps with the same weight
- Increase weight for the same reps
- Add weight when you hit the top of your rep range
- Decrease rest intervals (powerful for fat loss)
