When you look at apps and tracking programs they all have a calorie deficit when you do cardio but there is none for lifting weights. If my TDEE for cutting 2lb a week is 1300 and I only lift weights that day for an hour I would think I need to adjust my TDEE to maybe somewhere around 1700. Thoughts?
My goal is to lose fat as fast as I can while not losing the muscle I gained on cycle. I think regardless of my calories with this diet and work out plan I will lose weight fairly quickly but if I have to miss a workout 1 day I have a feeling I should adjust it.
