Dieting, but not to loose weight. Help?

[Dave416]

Ok well basically im doing low rep/heavy weight lifting, and im not fat right now, not exactly lean, I would say in the middle and im really not trying to cut weight, Im more looking for a food plan that will help me with growing muscles and becomming lean. So basicallyu healthy things I should eat that wont make me signifintly drop weight considering I plan on doing a good amount of cardio everyday. I dont know if anyone really understands what im saying but if yoiu do, if you could give me a ruff plan on food I should be eating on a daily basis, andmaybe even times I should eat?

This thread has a lot of information on it.

Two things, in general, you either put on muscle OR you take off fat.

The two together, very difficult combination unless

1. You are new to weight training

2. You take steroids

3. You are a genetic freak

4. First time dieting down on a bodybuilding competition diet

Loads of cardio is not condusive to building muscle, in fact, in a lot of cases it will burn muscle, depending on the type and duration of the cardio.

You sound like you are very new. There is an e-book on this site that is fantastic that will cut the steep learning curve most people have when they start out. It is Nelson Montana's The Bodybuilding Truth.

He keeps things really simple and direct. I just finished it and I would highly recommend it.
