Ok so hear me out I’ve tried to put on muscle for years. Legit high protein diet, heavy weights, creatine supplements… the works

Also after the age of 30-ish our muscle starts to decline roughly 5% every 10 years which is why strength training is so important!
But why should you start to workout BEFORE (aka during) your weight loss journey?
