Is it necessary for me to have a caloric deficit?
I am not too concerned with weight loss, I mostly want to get stronger and more toned. Is it still necessary for me to have a caloric deficit? I'm just getting a little confused because I do want to lose fat, and also want to gain muscle, but don't want to lose too much weight. Thanks a lot for helping this newb out!
