weight down/ BF up.. WTF??

[MsBeverlyHills]

thanks so much-- you guys are awesome

think I'll take the running down to 30 minutes (no cardio would just be too radical for me).... & I cut from the cutting diet 300-500 calories-- does that make sense cuase Im not my burning those cals anymore???

I would personally do things one at a time. Cut the cardio, me, I would cut totally, you will most likely get a much better response from your body if you have been doing it for a while. Then I would work on my diet after you have determined what cutting the cardio off or down will do to your body. One thing at a time, learn what works for your body

Good advice from BG-Try just one thing at a time. That way you get the most benefit and Then decrease cals or whatever.

For me I do ultra low cardio just hiking. Very minimal maybe 3 days a week for 30-45 minutes. Basicaslly I love the area I live in and enjoy the outdoors.

My diet is what leans me out. Have dropped from 19%ish to 16%ish with NO Cardio!!!!!!!!!

I do lift as heavy as I can 3xper week.-valerie

I have run into the same problem lately, My trainer gave me a precontest diet about 1750 cals 70-100 carbs a day 225 grams protein. This seemed like good numbers to me, but he also wanted me to drop bodyfat fast - kinda dumb because it was 4 months out and I was at 16%. So I did the 75 min of cardio a day plus super intense workouts , and 8 weeks later I'm still at 15% feeling like ass, now taking a week off because I feel so shitty. Frustrating to say the least. I think I will take brick girl's advice and keep the same diet but cut out the cardio and see how it goes. Thanks
