im doing a lot of weight training
I am training for brazilian jiu jitsu so i’m doing a lot of working out.
But I need to be stronger, too. So shouldn’t I be eating a lot of protein which means a lot of calories? But I wanna lose weight.
But I need to lose 20-30 lbs to be in a diff weight class

I read an article online that was saying doing cardio before weight training is counter productive and that you should do weight training before cardio because when you weight train first, you’re burning off the carbs, and when you do your cardio you’re actually burn off the fat?
I generally do weight training for about 15-20 minutes. I do about 7 or 8 different machines, and I also do 50 minutes on the elliptical daily. By putting weight training first on the days I do both, would that actually help burn fat faster?

I’m 15, turning 16 in two weeks, and have been doing weight training for about almost a year. Will this do permamet damage and won´t let me grow? I did not very heavy excercies at most 80lbs like in chest, and in bicep curls. I measure 168cm, i guess thats like 5,6.

Ok I am a 22 yr old female and I have been working out lately, and trying to involve weight training as well. I have been doing legs and abs on one day, shoulders, back and chest on the next day, and arms and running on the third day….. What my question is, is how many weight exercises should I do for each muscle group? For example, I have been doing about 3 different exercises for my biceps (bicepcurls, and 2 different machines that work on ur biceps) ive been doing about 3 sets of 12 on each exercise, so in total about 9 sets of 12 for each muscle group……. Is this good or am I over doing it? Is one set of 12 reps enough??? Please help!! Thanks!!

I lost about 8-10 pounds in about 2 months. I try to eat healthy, get all my necessary nutrients, do 30 minute jogging about 4-5 days a week, and do weight training every other day. But since last week, i gained back like 2-3 pounds, is it muscle weight or something else? if it is, how would i know if i am still losing weight?

I have been working out doing 30 minutes of cardio and 30 minutes of weight training 5 days a week. I inquired about what is best, to do the cardio before or after, and all the answers I got told me I should be doing them on separate days. Is this accurate?

I’ve just started weight training exercises and I was just wondering what is the average weight a woman can bench press and curl when she first starts, and how much weight is safe for a woman to build up to?
and I have always heard that woman can lift weights and not look like the women in body building magazines. Am I wrong? That’s not the look I’m after.
I don’t want to look like a man for God’s sake
