1. Resistance train 3-5x per week

The stimulus proper resistance training provides is what ultimately drives muscle growth & retention.

1๏ธโƒฃ The Appropriate ROL (Rate Of Loss)

If youโ€™re losing more than ~1% of your total bodyweight per week, youโ€™re probably putting yourself at increased risk of muscle loss.

If youโ€™re losing less than .5% of your total bodyweight per week, youโ€™re probably retaining muscle as well as you can in a deficit but youโ€™re doing so at a cost: wasting a ton of time.

The ideal ROL is probably somewhere in the .5-1% of total bodyweight lost per week range making .75% a really good middle ground ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป
