Title says it all, i want to lose weight and also build some muscle, ive have been hitting the gym and cutting my calories by 500-900cal for the past two months, while i am seeing some muscle growth, its not very substantial or something people around me will notice, ive also lost about 2kgs which is not much so i am thinking of doing a 200cal surplus for a month to see how it goes I wanted to get some advice as well as read other people’s experiences

    My point was that you need to be in a surplus to build muscle.

    I agree, you do not need to be in an 8k calorie surplus to build muscle. That is excessive, but that is why he the most successful currently active strongman and we are not.
