Summer is here, and beilive it or not....You CAN burn fat AND build muscle

   As a Soldier, fitness is always on the list of top priorities. No matter what unit you serve in, in what capacity, doing whatever job you are doing, you MUST remain fit. For a lot of us, as young men maturing while serving our Country this means muscle size and strength. The problem is, as young Soldiers become more interested in the size of there muscles and how much they can bench presss, they tend to put on weight in the mid section.

 

Great article from Bodybuilding.com

 The reasons for this are numerous, but for me has always boiled down to the old belief that you cannot burn fat without risking losing a lot of muscle mass.

THIS IS NOT TRUE!!

There are various studies which debunk this theory and have excellent resources for one to plan an appropriate diet and exercise regime set on the goal of losing stubborn belly fat but still adding muscle mass.

I also have personal experience with this and have been able to add significant mass while shredding my core down to a "6-pack". It works trust me, and it is not that hard.
