i dont know whats wrong. when i was gaining wieght i gained just as much fat as i did muscle and now that im trying to lose fat im losing almost as much muscle as fat. the only thing i seem to make continous progress in is strength. i do interval training 2-3 times a week and workout 4x a week. i never do slow cardio more than once a week. my calories are defenetly not to low cause im eating 2400 calories a day and losing about 1-2 lb. a week. this seems good except when i checked my body fat it turned out i lost almost the same amount of muscle as fat. i seem to be doing everything right, i switch up my routines every month and always train with high intensity and give my muscles enough time to rest. CAN SOME1 GIVE ME SOME ADVICE SO I STOP LOSING MUSCLE!

ok, so calorically you're doing fine but what KIND of calories are they? Post your daily diet. To preserve muscle you will want to add more protein... make sure your meals are frequent during the day. What is your PWO shake/meal like? Good job using interval training. Slow cardio is much more catabolic.

if your strength is still going up its probably just because your slimming down.
otherwise i think it looks like your doing it pretty good. lol try that Guerilla Cardio stuff out.. seems like it might work for you if you can handle it.
