I'm living proof. So don't give me this thermodynamics crap. You can build weight loss on a deficit while getting stronger.

    I think the guy means build muscle on a calorie deficit.... Glad he got stronger on a deficit, but it really depends on where you're starting from. Chances of someone building muscle, man, on a deficit, say starting with 10 or 12 % body fat is pretty much impossible... Starting with 40% body fat would be pretty easy

    Also by eating clean I've been able to build muscle without a surplus. I got heavier too, so obviously it's not true.

    So you gained weight from a calorie deficit. Did you sow the hole in the back shut, haha

    I think I just forgot to watch my sodium and drink enough water. Either that or I ate too late in the day and gave myself metabolic damage.

    An 8 day juice fast will fix all that for you right quick. ;)
