The best way to help, I've found, is to just read through other people's posts, and offer help if you think you have something to contribute. This whole forum is full of people looking for advice.

Welcome to the site. You may find by looking around that many people here are willing to help and have some serious qualifications in various areas. You'll also see a lot of people who are struggling. These types of threads by new members often don't go as planned only because they often have no background.
What is your specialty?

Quote-You need to find out your fat burning heart rate for your body structure. This will help you burn fat not muscle. Let me know if you ever need help.
What do you mean by the above advice you gave? What does my body structure have to do with anything? How does being in my fat burning zone protect my LBM?

I'm sorry you're getting trolled when you're only trying to help. I do have serious questions myself.
1. Recommended protein intake to to assist strength training to lean muscle building.
2. Recommended % cardio / strength training mix if my goal is to lose fats while gaining muscle mass.5 -
what are you thoughts on eating carbs after 8pm?1

1. .8 grams per pound of body weight. Honestly, if you want to build muscle then carbs are going to be more important.
2. you can't lose fat and gain mass at the same time. you can recomp and do that over a long period of time, or if you are new to lifting you can get some newbie gains. There is no ration of cardio to strength training, you just need to be on a structured lifting program with progressive overload built in...3 -
It's OK I new there will be people asking those types of questions.
Question 1 Depends on your weight and what is your actual goal. if you're exercising everyday, or if you're a pro athlete. For example my weight is 250 when I'm training hard I will have an intake of around 200 g of protein a day. When I don't work out I will lower the intake around 150 g. It's hard to give actual numbers without knowing your body composition. So calculate if a person weighs 165 pounds they should be consuming 55 to 65 grams of protein as an average Joe. If your working out those days you should be consuming more. You just have to be careful to not over do the intake of protein as it can turn into fat. Protein shakes can help, but it's always better to eat food with all macronutrients. If you want more actual numbers to give you, you can private message me with your actual weight etc...
Question 2 This depends also on your body composition. Doing both is a good idea, so you don't get burned out on just cardio or strength training. If I'm on a nutrient plan to loose % body fat I do more cardio and light weight training. Lots of intervals where I keep my heart rate up. Your diet is key if you're trying to loose % fat and gaining muscle. You need to maintain your daily calorie intake to sustain muscle growth.
If you still have questions please feel free to ask.3 -

disagree on 2 - if you want to build any mass while in a deficit (assuming newbie) or recomping you are gong to need a structured lifting program with progressive overload. Light lifting and HIIT is not going to cut it.2 -

Really? By what physiological mechanism does this happen?7 -
Yes I agree with you but I don't know what her actually activity level. I don't want her to misinterpret progressing overload. You can build and maintain with light weight trianing to failure.0

Thank you for your feedback. I do have some questions that I would like to field to you via inbox. However, there was an error when I tried. Would you mind sending me a message? Maybe I will be allowed to respond if you do.

I'm recovering from facet joint syndrome. I train for powerlifting and have not squat or deadlifted in 5 weeks. Once my pain is gone, how should I go about adding/programming in my squats and deads using a DUP style program?0

1) The first article is about no such thing. I have no idea where you got that from. In fact, at the end of the article he explicitly states:So, as noted above, while the pathway exists for protein to be stored as fat, and folks will continue to claim that ‘excess protein just turns to fat’, it’s really just not going to happen under any sort of real-world situation. Certainly we can dream up odd theoretical situations where it might but those won’t apply to 99.9% of real-world situations.
2) Define "excessive".2 -
I disagree0
-
Protein is the last source of energy for the body to use. Carbs digest the quickest and is the main source of energy. If you intake excessive amount of protein some will flush out and the rest will turn into glucose then fat. In one sitting your body only needs 30 to 40 grams of protein.0
