yes it is possible regardless of what physics majors on /fit/ will tell you

It's only really possible for amateurs. Beginner gains sort of deal.

Also, so what if you lose some weight. You can get it back. Why is diet not an option? Diet is a crucial element of fitness.

"how do i cheat the most basic rules of fitness and make my body gain muscle while simultaneously losing fat while also not factoring in diet"

SURE BUD LEMME JUST WHIP THAT PLAN RIGHT UP FOR YA HERES MY EXPERT TRAINING ROUTINE AND KEEP IN MIND, IF ANYONE SAYS THIS ABSOLUTE BULLSHIT YOU JUST SPOUTED WONT WORK THEN THEY ARE CLEARLY A PHYSICS NERD AND DONT KNOW GAINZ LIKE U DO

You are skinny fat. No muscle, a decent amount of fat. You have dug yourself into a deep hole, and you have two options to get out. Diet and cut until skinny and emaciated skeleton mode, or bulk until chubby but muscles mode. Both are ugly. Choose based on goals. Chubby mode will get you strong fast, but you will have to cut after, and then look good. Skeleton mode you will stay a weak emaciated loser, but you'll get abs faster. And then bulk into being big

Kinda scared of how long the process will take to get below 14% body fat. I don't want to drop too low with my weight. If there's no other way I obviously have to do it though

>>36558795
As you might have seen I weigh already below average, so if possible burning fat without losing weight would be great

I'm not skinny at all though fortunately. Have pretty good genetics

>goes into Newb question thread
>make retarded comment about how smart he is

Grow up fag

Anyways, thanks guys. I guess diet + cardio is a must then. Bulk afterwards :(

Wait, so you think diet necessarily means losing weight?

Eat at a slight surplus. 250 over TDEE. You'll gain a bit of fat, but that's unavoidable. You'll gain muscle and strength too

You should always do cardio, but eat enough to counteract it. Cardio just makes you better at everything, from lifting to living longer

My whole plan is to lose fat right now. I have way too much. Staying the same weight or even gaining some while burning fat would be ideal but I guess it's not possible. I guess I don't really need to diet though. I don't eat enough anyways. Constantly losing weight since a year. Was 78kg back then

You're 6' 155lbs? You need to gain some weight. Trust me, I'm 6' 178
