Protein/Carb intake and cardio
A week ago I started getting back into weightlifting. I'm 24 6' 200 lbs. with a gut.
My protein intake is roughly 300 g daily and my carb intake is roughly 85 g daily. I am not doing any cardio because I want to build as much muscle as possible. But I do wanna lose my gut.
I'm in a catch 22 because if I do cardio my fat will come off quicker but I'll build muscle slower (i already have skinny arms, legs, etc.), if I don't do cardio and just eat clean healthy meals I'll build muscle quicker but my fat will come off slower and I hate having a gut. So I think I will do the latter and do NO cardio. Keep in mind I just started training again after taking 3 years off. I'm taking the usual creatine,glutamine,protein,bcaa's,etc....I'm also satcking 1 ad with Nor 19.
Anyway my question is, for my goals is 85 g of carbs too much/too little?
Is 300 g of protein enough? I'm dividing it into 6 meals a day.
Is my way the better way, doing NO cardio just lifting and eating clean for my goals of losing my gut and building some muscle? I've only been into this 6 days so far so I can't really see any results yet.
Any info would be greatly appreciated.
