How can I gain a lot of muscle mass and lose fat at the same time?
I try to burn more calories than I take in, running 2 miles a day. So that burns fat. But on the other hand, I know to get big you must eat big, take in a lot of calories. I know my muscles are getting stronger, I can lift more than before; but is it possible to do both, gain muscle mass and lose fat at the same time?

“If you chase two rabbits, you will catch neither” ~Chinese Proverb
Muscle will burn fat, this is true, but even professional lifters have times where they’ll train to stop gaining muscle and cut fat. If you think you’re too fat, train to lose weight. If you think you’re okay in the fat department, but you want bigger muscles, build them up and then do a fat cutting period.
There are special diets and training regimens where you allegedly can do both, but they are very intensive and their effectiveness is still debated.

No way man, what i did was go through a bulking stage to gain muscle mass not just eat burgers and fats all day but eat more than usual but of good food like fish, lean meat, lot’s of protein and LOT’S of WATER!!!!!, then i cut down by burning fat and kept the protein high as I could so I wouldn’t lose muscle that I gained good luck dude

When you perform a push up, you have to press approximately 70% of your body weight. With pull ups you have to be able to pull 100% of your weight up to the bar. If you don’t have the strength to do correct push ups or pull ups, for a significant number of repetitions, you can’t get any positive results or you don’t even try. One of the best aspects of the Push Up Bench is that you start off with immediate success. As you move through each level you can achieve your goal many times over-which in turn motivates you to keep exercising. The Push Up Bench is designed to make push ups and pull ups easier. This will allow for a greater number of repetitions. You can start at the highest level, which means you only have to push 28% of your body weight instead of 70%. The Push Up Bench transfers the weight from your upper body to your feet- decreasing the amount of weight you have to press. Now you can do push ups with perfect form- which allows you to get full range of motion and hit all the muscle groups the push up exercise has to offer. As you get stronger, you can increase the weight you have to push by going through each level until your on the ground doing normal push ups. You can also increase the load on your arms by doing decline push ups. The Push Up Bench is adjustable to fit each person’s height from approximately 4’8 to 6’4. You don’t have to stop once you reach a full push up. The Push Up Bench also makes pull ups easier. By sitting inside the Bench you are able to perform seated or assisted pull ups. If your looking to tone your arms, increase your strength, need help passing a physical fitness test or just want to look and feel better, the Push Up Bench can help you achieve your goals.
