Hi Robert, I’ve been listening to the great podcasts you’ve recently done on skinny fat lifters, as well as the stuff with Andy on a more body building approach to things.
For various reasons I’ve been out of lifting for about 5 months and am looking to restart with an LP. My issue is that I’m 5ft 7, 47 years old and approximately 30% body fat at 89 kilos. My question is do I need to gain more weight or can I run an LP and perhaps drop a few kilos? I also run 5k a week and do interval sprints twice a week and am actively trying to lose weight through this and diet (plus I enjoy these activities).
Should I drop the kilo’s first and try and reduce bf% prior to hopping back to serious lifting? Probably a lot of silly questions here that you’ve answered before, so apologies in advance!
