Strength train and get enough protein. If you want stomach fat gone you need to concentrate on your bodyfat percentage, not weight. A person that is 5'8" 180 lbs can be fat with a belly or ripped with a sixpack depending on their bodyfat percentage.

If you're more into how you look compared to being at a weight that no one gets know but yourself, then you should concentrate on your body composition and bodyfat% rather than what the scale says. The goal should always be fat loss and never weight loss. Fat loss will insure you that you will get leaner, more tone, and…

Do you know know that japanese guy who does competitve eating? His advice to help people eat more was to eat all your carbs first then after eat your proteins, because protein is harder to digest than carbs so it gets you full faster. So if you take his advice and do the opposite and eat your protein before eating your…

Strength training to retain muscle while on a deficit. Eating at deficit to lose weight, get enough protein to help minimize muscle loss. Cardio is optional. If you do cardio, you can eat more while losing weight because cardio burns calories, which will increase your daily caloric need.

Who wants to be skinny when they can be lean? Being lean looks way better and is harder to achieve.

Muscle definition and gaining muscle is not the same thing, just saying...

Add in some tricep isolation exercises as an accessorie for you pressing movements. This helped me when I started lifting weights.

I count calories as a way to rebel agianst restricting foods or food groups.

Weight loss comes from eating a calorie deficit. Carbs/sugar, fats, protein can all cause you to gain weight if you eat more than you burn, even if they come from "healthy foods". If you eat two bananas a day and you're still in a deficit, you will lose.
-
Seeing more definition comes from losing fat, and getting stronger can come from your muscles working more efficiently together.
-
Eat more fats, they're calorie dense so you don't have to eat so much volume of food.
-
Yes, eat back exercise calories. Just make sure your calories burned is accurate and not tottally off, people say MFP calories burned are inflated.
-
If you're under your calories, then no, going over your fats won't make you gain weight.

My program is day 1- shoulder, chest, triceps day 2- back day 3- legs day 4- chest, shoulder, triceps day 5- back & legs and I do one exercise for my core on all those days. With this, I hit every body part twice a week.
-
Yes, a lot of people do weekly calories.
-
It will be hard hitting your macros and micros eating junk food all day. How can you get your protein in if all you eat is oreos, french fries, icecream and chips?
-
^What she said. Protein is one of the most important macros, every macro can be converted into energy but only protein can be used to repair muscle. A higher protein diet while eating a deficit will help you retain more muscle mass while losing weight, thus most of your losses will be from fat and you will achieve a leaner…

Yea, standing press works out more body parts, but I guess it's just all depends on your goals. Your lower back shouldn't be hurting, unless your using too much weight or you have incorrect form. For the deadlifting, it depends on your goals and what you want to get from deadlifting. There's differnt variations of…

Seated dumbell shoulder press all the way! But thats just me, if standing overhead press works best for you then do it.
-
Do it, they give it back for a reason. Just make sure your calories burned is accurate.

Is kipping using momentum? If so, I kip while doing muscle ups on a bar, but not on the rings. I prefer doing them on the rings because it doesnt hurt my wrist like when I do it on the bar, and it feels more natural for me.

If your calories burned was accurate then yes eat them back, if you don't you will make your deficit larger than it is suppose to be. MFP wouldn't add back calories if you wern't suppose to eat them back.
-
Do this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3nhqz1DgzN8 to increase your tricep strength, you need strong triceps to do push ups or any pushing movements.

Weight loss comes from eating under your TDEE, also the more active you are, the higher your TDEE is.
-
Eat a deficit to lose weight. Strength train to minimize muscle loss. Get enough protein to help retain your muscle. Combining all of this will help you lose weight while minimizing muscle loss, thus resulting in a lower bodyfat percentage which is what you need to lose belly fat.

Yes, you would lose the same amount by eating 1200 calories and not working out. Besides all health benifits of working out, working out allows you to eat more on your weight loss journey.
