Hi im currently trying to drop abit more weight and its going fine so i need anyhelp with that (ATM hopefully it stays) and i noticed that while im doing this the work i do at the gym (weights) is getting harder and im not progressing as much as i thought, now this isnt a should i do weights or not question but im just wondering if the reason for the weights becoming harder is because im trying to loseweight and if so should i still continue like im doing know or should i focus on dropping the weight and still trying do weights just to maintain as much strength as i can untill i've reached my target and then focus on strength gains or should (can) i do both at the same time?
Part of the weight your losing will be muscle, while trying to drop weight your focus in the weight room should just be to maintain as much as possible, don't expect to make any gains/progress, once you have dropped the weight to were you want to be then you can start a strength/power lifting routine to increase strength while trying to keep hypertrophy at a minimum so that you don't regain mass (mass equals weight).
