“How do I stop losing muscle while losing weight?”
This is something we hear a lot — especially from people who are actively trying to lose body fat.
Losing weight doesn’t always mean losing only fat. Lean muscle can be lost too, particularly when calorie intake is low and you’re not getting enough protein or resistance training.
So what can you do to give your body the best chance of holding onto muscle? 
Prioritise protein — Make protein a regular part of your meals.
Strength train — Give your muscles a reason to stay strong.
Stay active — Walking and general movement still matter.
Recover properly — Sleep and recovery are an important part of maintaining performance.
Avoid unnecessarily aggressive weight loss — Faster isn’t always better.
