I just started lifting about 3.5 months ago doing SS, and I've been seeing great results. The problem is....I'm fat. If I had to guess my bf%, it would probably be in the mid 20s. I was planning to start cutting weight for the next month or 2 to get myself to a more reasonable bf% before bulking again (hopefully fit into my old pants again too). I'm 5'10" and weigh about 215.
The question: do I need to change my lifting routine while I cut weight, or should I continue on the SS plan? I'm also going to be going back to Judo and BJJ, so I don't know how that will affect my rest days. Any advice? I know I won't be seeing the gains on my lifts as quickly, but can I still expect to see some progress while I'm losing weight since I'm so new to lifting?
