Build Muscle while still getting Cardio in
Hey Marc - GREAT YouTube channel....thanks! I'm a 54 year old man, and I lift 5 days a week, sometimes 6 or 7 - depending on schedule, mood, etc. I've been active like this most of my life, but have always carried excess fat around my waist. I took your body type quiz, and am a Somatype 4:4:1, but I think I trend more toward endomorph. I want to continue to build muscle and lose fat as I get older, but I also have been advised by docs to bump up cardio, due to family history of cardiac issues (none with me, but I want to be mindful of history). For cardio, I do 40-45 min in the gym (after weights), or swim a couple miles a day, several days per week. I had feared some over-training, but after watching one of your recent videos, I get it that it's highly unlikely. Recent adjustments I've made are moving to a Keto diet (seems to be helping) and doing your squat every day recommendation (I like this a lot, but I have a spine fusion, so often do a variety of squats versus traditional heavy barbell squats). There's my story - if you've got some recommendations on how to maintain / add muscle and drop fat while keeping the docs happy on the cardio front, I'm all ears! Thanks, Bill
How is bodybuilding beneficial to one's mindset over time?
What are the longterm benefits to the mind, from bodybuilding? Many people answer longterm benefits to the body, but not that many people talk about to the mindset.
AMBROSIA RITUAL
I drink Bulletproof coffee in the AM. I add MCT Oil and grass fed butter to my coffee. Can I add Ritual to this or should I leave out the MCT oil and butter and just use Ritual with my coffee?
thanks

Body composition when cycling calories
Hi Mark! What is your opinion on cycling calories throughout the week? I have a very busy work schedule and I usually under eat the days I go to the gym but make up for them on my rest days. Will this affect body composition? (Since I eat more calories on rest days and less calories on training days)
